Saturday Half Century against the Wind
After six days on the couch, I opted not to push for a new distance this afternoon. Instead I took it easy with a nice nearly-flat 50 miles—down to Cupertino and back, and around the Portola Valley / Woodside loop.
The headwinds were significant today, around 20 mph, and my performance was a little weaker than I’d have liked, but I’ve just spent six straight days off the bike waiting for a rim. I feel sluggish and weak. Let’s see how things go next weekend.
Today: 50.35 mi; 2:40:32 (18.8 mph avg; 40.0 mph max)
May : 538.36 mi; 28:22:56 (19.0 mph avg; 46.0 mph max)
2005 : 2969.03 mi; 159:28:02 (18.6 mph avg; 46.0 mph max)
Goal : 5000.00 mi (2030.98 mi to go : 59.38% complete)
