 Back to Climbing
Legs felt a little better today and did a short route with two climbs with steep sections. Spun the first climb up Steuben then pushed a headwind to Chambers for the next climb. Headwind had a little crosswind involved and it kept blowing the copious sweat from the humidity all into my left eye which was most unpleasant. Spun the approach to the Chambers climb and stood up with some success on the steep sections. Did surprisingly well considering how bad the legs felt yesterday. The Chambers Road downhill is still closed to bridge construction and so had to descend on Murphy Hill. Pretty much coasted the downhill and back down SR 14 with a stiff tailwind. Had some good climbing but took everything else at a nice touring pace.
