New workout-Pull heavy ass tandem with heavy child over 140 miles. Love my dear boy but I swear I just hauled a small U-haul trailer from Rehoboth. Saturday was hard, lots of wind, and we are a big target for crosswinds. The workout wasn't necessarily anaerobic but rather a slow low aerobic weight lifting session. Phew. With that said we did have our moments of extreme momentum.
Camped out last night to the sound of rain on our tent and it was coming down in Buckets at Chesapeake College this morning, left my rain gear in my wife's van so improvised with trash bags. But once we got shuttled across the Bay Bridge it was cloudy but no rain.
Most of todays 40 miles was on the B&A then familiar Hollins Ferry etc. I saw the racers warming up at Patterson Park as we rolled by to the headquarters of Moveable Feast but I had enough exposure and rolling around on a tandem without a passenger seemed weird, but certainly much lighter.
