halfway through the month and I’m almost to my goal for January. But the coldest weather so far this winter is on its way .
And I’m tired of riding on wet pavement

6 minute miles today on the Crisscross , about as fast I can go in the neighborhood.
didn’t have time for more , picking up daughter and granddaughters at the airport this afternoon. Spent the morning getting ready for them .
just glad I got in a quick ride . Makes the day better .

Another 43 miles today (16.6 average speed. OH MY GAWD IT WAS WINDY!!!! At one point, going all out, I was doing 12.8 MPH, passing other riders. I wonder if the indoor trainer people feel that on their rides?

133 miles total for the month, only 2,264 elevation gain so far.

I thought about riding the local mtn road for another 3 to 4k of gain but there has been snow and rain last couple of days. Don't want to hit any ice or water coming down at 30+.

Longest Zwift ride so far at 2 hours. 1,500 of climbing with about 6 laps of Innsbruck. I’m faster on Zwift, but I can ride much, much longer in the real world. I got the 1.21 Gigawatts awards on one uphill section where I was feeling particularly frisky.

Taking a break today .
It’s sunny outside, but the high today at 3pm was 41 with a windchill of 35 . Too cold for me . If it weren’t for the wind , I’d bundle up and try it .
I know to some of you northern folk , 41 would be a warm day , but down here in the south , that’s cold

.
Tomorrow supposed to be better , but it’s going to be a long over due range day .
Hopefully , I can get in a ride Thursday.
