I drove yesterday, because over lunch I went to pick up my road bike, which was at the shop having a new cable installed. I admit I don't know how to do it with brifters, and didn't feel like I had time.

Today, I took the eBike and was planning to go un-powered for the commute, then most likely use some power to go to the bike club board meeting after work tonight. As soon as I started heading east, I got hit by a headwind. Then when I turned north, it got worse; 13 gusting to 20.
Nope. Warp Drive: ENGAGE. My legs are still not 100% after the 94 mile Saturday and 36 mile Monday, both at high effort, so I'm babying them since yesterday.

So, 2 mile commute to work, then 5.5 miles to the grocery store for the meeting, then 6 miles home, all on the eBike.
