After all of the nice weather of late, today was a bit disappointing as it was a bit cool and I probably should have worn tights. And much like last weekend, it was another tough battle against a relentless headwind.
This ride took me back to the steel deck bridge on Foot Rd which I have not been on in many years. It was back in 1996 or 1997 that I rode across this bridge early one morning as I had previous times, but this morning there was dew on the bridge. Wet steel and bicycles are a deadly combination as I near found out that day when I almost crashed on it. After this very scary event I vowed I would never ride a steel deck bridge again. Thus as I have since, I stopped and walked across it. It's just not worth it. |
