Unusual ride in for me today. A mixed up training schedule led me to leave my messenger bag at work last night. I only realized it this a.m. So my ever-patient wife agreed to drop off my work clothes after she dropped off the kids. With no bag, I was free to ride the roadie, which I did.
So, in honor of Bike to Work Day, I engaged in a Zoom to Work Day. Realizing I had a 9am appointment I still squeezed in a monster hill ride, took a different route that was longer overall (25 miles), and was presented with a nasty headwind about halfway into the ride. Because of the 9am meeting, I basically sprinted the whole way. I am beat now, but charged up.
Didn't see that many other commuters on the way in but it could be that I was running a little late.
