Cool ride in today, about 63 when I left the house. Made good time on the 7 mile meduim commute, did that commute so I could still get sleep and get to work early. Leaving at 4:30 today to meet up with some other Albuquerque commuters at UNM at 5:00, gonna hang out do some BS'ing and maybe get some food!

This weekend I did 50 miles with the group ride thing, kinda sucked, I was low on energy the whole time, and was hoping for an easy ride back (we basically turn around at about 25 miles)...I was one of the last to get into the restroom, and it took me longer to get ready to go than normal, the group ended up rolling out without me, and I had to hurry to catch up. one guy dropped back to help me, lucky thing he did or I might have gotten lost (there are a few tricky turns at the turn around that I don't have the hang of yet) Then on the way back with a tail wind we were cranking along at about 25 mph...which was really hurtin...I dropped back to the end of the paceline...but couldn't hang, ended up getting dropped about 18 miles from where I was parked. No big deal, just dropped the speed down a bunch 13-15 mph :-) and it actually made for an enjoyable ride.
