Another reason gettting old sucks
My 69th birthday is next week so since the weather was a good as its gonna be over the next week I did my "ride your age" ride today. Made 71 miles with no pain and little effort, I had my highest average watts in the last few years for a ride over 40 miles. Lowest average speed though, as I was riding my winter Cinturato Velos which have about 8 watts per tire more rolling resistance over my normal GP 5000 S TRs plus the non aero wheels. But damn, these birthday rides get longer and harder every year!
But it was a nice ride and I am happy I did it. I kind of want to take credit for next year as I had extra miles over this years age though.
