About the same here, and it's been similarly miserable here for the last 4-5 days. Damp, too, which is the worst. I'd rather a crisp 20 than a damp 35.
Undecided on whether I'll ride today. I have my minimum 100 miles in for the week, so if I do ride, it'd just be a token, get-out-of-the-house 20-30 mile jobber. I may just go for a walk, instead.

One of the newbie cyclists in my group keeps over-inflating his tires. He is running 28’s and is small, likely weighs around 130. He is running 95 PSI. I told him 75 is likely sweet spot but he said he tried 80 and they felt soft and mushy.

The Vikes were off-schedule. Thankfully.

Ramona said "That sure is a big beer." I said, "It's a nice size, but not that big. This is a child's size beer in Germany."
