One More January Ride...

It was sunny, and not too cold. Just around the freezing mark. My new job starts on Monday, so I figured I wouldn't have too many days to bike until it gets warmer, and the sun sets later. I layered up and headed out for an ambitious 25+ mile ride. I also wanted to test out a route I put together for a friend of mine who is in training for the Lake Placid Ironman this summer. It's been a while since I have done a lot of serious, consistent riding and the numbers show it. I only managed to average 14 mph and my legs were rubbery when I got back. The winter clothing work well, though my fingers were cold in the beginning and my toes got colt in the end. Much like an average day of skiing... I miss skiing...
