Well, I hate to say I will probably not be riding my ride Saturday 10/1.
Last week when I decided to do it, the weather was calling for High of 70, and sunny. Now it's 53, Windy, and rain. I told my wife I still plan to see if I can spin bike 25 on Saturday just for the heck of it.
FYI, I went out and rode the 50 course in the SUV the other day. I realized I would kill myself doing it. It was hills, hills, and more hills. There was pretty much not a flat area on the ride. I may have made it, but I think I know my limits, so I was going to drop back to the 25 miler, even though it was going to be tough with all the hills.
So, call me a wimp. But riding in 53 degrees with heavy winds and rain is not my idea of a fun ride.
Good news is, I've done 359 miles so far this month. Won't hit my 400 goal, but I lost a lot of days to bad weather around here.
PS, the recipe I got for the energy bars is terrible...okay, they are excellent, and I could eat the whole tray in one sitting. I have to find a way to make them a little less tasty
