Sat: was planning on doing the gravel ride with the shop 15 mins away. GF texted me from the start of our shop ride 3 blocks away and said they were doing a route I wanted to do. Ran to the basement, grabbed road bike, loaded it with bottles and garmin. Ran outside and got shoes and helmet from the car and took off. I knew they had already left but the start is usually mellow and I had a great tailwind. Caught my GF's group within a mile and asked how far the long route group was and she said not far. Kicked it up another notch and caught them in the next few streets. 21.5 avg for a few miles wooo good and warmed up. Group had about 6-7 people and we had a great ride. The longest stretch was into a rough headwind that made me glad to have a powermeter so i knew i wasn't just sucking. 40 miles later we were back and I spent the rest of the day being dehydrated and bonky. Long mtn bike ride tomorrow, hopefully we get most of it in before it gets really hot again.
