I'm more worried about the cold weather than anything. Don't have any base layers. Will be interesting for sure.
NOT TOO WORRY!!!! It is not as cold as earlier predicted, so take your time and ENJOY.
I'll be heading out from my hotel room in about 3 hours for the 4 mile ride to Waterfront Park. Temps are going to be in the low 50'sF to mid/upper 60'sF with winds NNW up to 15mph. Today will be a big test for my 6 week old(tomorrow), newly installed right shoulder joint. Will be hanging behind other riders as much as possible for the 100 miles.
