Well it had snowed through the night, that powdery stuff, so I didn’t ride in the morning I waited until after I had lunch to see if things would improve a bit, unfortunately not really. It’s wasn’t raining/snowing like yesterday this was replaced with hail but it was just as windy So for the first 30 miles i was ok since I had a tailwind but the last 20 miles were brutal! I was riding into a strong headwind with hail in my face, a thousand tiny bee stings on my face. The wind was energy sapping and the last 20 miles my avg speed dropped big time. I had managed to maintain over 17 mph for the first 30 miles but this was wind assisted that last 20 miles dropped it to under 15 mph I was also starting to get cold towards the end of the ride so I was very thankful for a hot shower when I got home.
