I took today off. Last night was Iyengar Yoga class, this summer especially in a non-airconditioned room (the program is run by our local schools as part of Adult Education) - teacher pushed us all hard because people eat too much on the Fourth, don't they? Dehydration stage 1?
Went out at 7 am to meet a bud for a bike ride riding my Terraferma, got on the road together at 8:45, 85 degrees. Rode 30 miles with some breaks, drinking not enough water (2 large bottles was not enough!). Heart rate up to 160 toward the end, possible heat stress? Still we maintained about 14.2 mph average and I had no other discomforts other than needing to further fine-tune the saddle.. Went home to cool, chill, rest, rehydrate, eat, and ... well get on BF! I'm finally hungry. Tonight I foresee installing a bike computer on the bike.
