No riding yesterday because I was studying most of the day for my finals the next few days.

Good, but sluggish feeling commutes today.

41F and dawn to mostly cloudy with mainly crosswinds from the NNW @ 11-13mph gusting to 18mph on the commute in. Felt pretty slow on this ride. My legs were tiring out quickly. I made ok time, but something just didn't feel quite right. I had made a seat adjustment by tighting the straps over the weekend. I stopped about 2/3 into the ride to mess with them. I think the wind may also have had an impact.

42F and partly cloudy this afternoon with mainly crosswinds from the NNE @ 4-9mph. Still wasn't feeling 100% and a little slow, so I made a quick stop to mess with the straps again about 1/2 way. Felt a better for the most part, but still not great. Had to stop with about 4 miles left because nature was calling. While I was stopped there, for the 3rd time today I messed with the straps. I guess 3rd times a charm because finally everything felt the way it was supposed to. Finished the rest of the commute home feeling great.
