Warmer temperatures brought more riders to today’s ride. A couple of faces I haven’t seen since October of last year. Dan and I did our usual loop then ended up at BikeTek. Knowing that my legs were still sore from the marathon I already told myself (and Dan) that I would be turning around just after Farmingdale Rd.
An East wind meant a fast pace on the way out. Surprisingly, my legs felt better today and I could actually accelerate when I stood up on the pedals. This meant I was able to hang with big boys, at least until we headed West off of Farmingdale Rd. Turning around though mean a headwind home. But at least Dan was there to talk to. I totaled 22 miles for the day and felt pretty good.
