 Recovery Ride
Was a bit hesitant about riding today after beating my body up yesterday, but weather was pretty decent despite the ever present wind. Opted for a two climbs into the wind and a tailwind home course to Sullivinville. Legs were tender and so spun at a tender rate up New Odessa hill with a corresponding poor time. Wind over the top wasn't very thick today and so lacked much of the normal opposing force. Kept a moderate pace to the Junction and was surprised to see another actual rider though on the other side of the road. Legs started to feel better and pushed the climb up Sullivinville hill on SR 13 and put in a decent effort. Tenderness was gone, and I sailed down the backside despite the headwind and saw my second rider of the day. Legs felt good and strong on the back nine on the way home and saw a third rider of the day. He was wearing what appeared to be a US Postal kit, so he must have been a rider from way back though he didn't look familiar. So had a good day on the bike and the excellent weather appears to have brought out a record number of riders.
