A late, remote work session until after 10pm cut into my sleep, but I did sleep well if a bit short. Up just after 4am and on the road by 4:30.
I had a tailwind pushing me on the way out which was nice and also hit a new high speed going down Blackman hill. But I struggled on the return though, mostly from out riding my fitness and hauling my fatness up the escarpment. Also struggled to get my heart rate up today as noted above. Usually going up that I'll be above 170 by the time I get to the top. All in all a good ride though for so early in the year.
Didn't make it to Lake Ontario today as I needed to turn around due to time. With Townline road closed again this year for an extended period of time, I have to loop around to Bear Ridge to Killian. I then ride the wrong way (< 1/4 mi) through the construction zone to get to Beach Ridge. Eventually. :) |
