I wanted to ride yesterday but we opted for the annual block party. We figured that since we're the new folks on the block it would be a good idea to go and meet our neighbors.
I headed out this morning even though the wind seemed kind of treacherous. Had a strong headwind while riding east along CR486 heading to the trail. Got to Hernando and headed north. Seemed like the wind kept changing directions. I had a tailwind part of the way when headed north. Then the wind was coming from the NE so I had a headwind.
Stopped at the top end and had a Hammer bar. Then headed south. Had a nice tailwind till I got to Holder. Then the wind changed again and it was coming from the east or SE.
When I headed west along CR486 it seemed the wind was coming from the south because when going down the big hill and doing 28+ mph I could feel the wind playing with my front wheel so I slowed down a little.
Rode a total of 35.8 miles.
