Legs were trashed from yesterday's race pace on the trainer and didn't want to put any more strain on my tired body so opted for a very short ride around the swamp. Weather has been in the low forties for the past couple of days and heavy rains have removed all the ice and snow and left the rivers swollen. Winds were heavy from the west but were shifting to the north bringing back freezing temperatures for the weekend. Got out early enough to beat the wind change with the temperatures still in the forties. Didn't make much of an effort or really have much of a ride. Only saw one walker on the rail trail to Watkins. I did think that the ice was all gone, but I did see some forming an ice dam under the bridge over the canal as it passes into the lake. I did get to ride up a stream that had formed on the only small climb of the day. The snow thaw was falling over the eastern cliffs above the road and had formed a channel in the road before running into the swamp. That was about it for the ride. Finished it off on Rock Cabin Road. Thought briefly about trying out the Bird Trail loop but suspected it to be mostly under water and wanted to get in before everything started freezing up again.
