Bronzed rider

Spending time outdoors walking, riding, doing yard work and taking dips in the pool has made me a darker person.

Rather warm today, my chest felt it, the vapor rising from the ground. The trails are dry now, faster pedaling for sure. There wasn’t that many people out, maybe they’re scared of the warmth or are waiting for cooler late afternoon temps. I know that I’m going to have to ride earlier, gotta get out before 10:00 am or else it’s crispy rider.

MTB: distance 13.72 miles, average speed 13.4 mph.
