Tired and sluggish this morning. I started lifting this week, after a 3+ year layoff (torn rotator cuff), and doing core exercises, as well as a lunch time ride that probably doubled my daily mileage so, I was on empty this morning and took the opportunity to take it easy and spin in. I'm excited about our lunch time rides, I've never been able to participate in something like this, we'll use it for fun as well as an opportunity for some focussed training-it's great that the other guys are really into it. It's also good news that we're getting a break from the sub-freezing temps and high winds, next week looks good so far. dcb23 is right, there is so much salt in the bike lanes in DC, it's an inch deep in some places, I hope this weekend's rain washes it away-it can't be good for one's drive train.
