Today was my first bike commute since April 4 as I was out of town all of last week, partly for work and partly for a bike tour. Rode Cycle NC's spring event last weekend, cycling 196 miles in 3 days along the North Carolina coast. The ride was great with beautiful weather except for the wind, which made Saturday's century one of my toughest rides ever. Didn't ride yesterday to get some recovery time, and my legs were still pretty tired this morning. The good thing is that daylight has returned to my morning commute after losing it when daylight savings time went into effect a few weeks ago. It was a chilly morning, but I like that because it means no sweat if I dress right.
