Drizzle and plenty of wind
All afternoon there was a light drizzle and it was very windy. I kept an eye on the radar and went out on the paths trying to keep the wind at my back.
My legs feel tight, especially when I shift into a high gear. It’s like my legs are telling me to take it easy or they’re going to cramp up on me. I listen to them and slow it up a bit, hopefully a couple of more weeks and I can feel good about going fast.
MTB: distance 13.52 miles, average speed 13.3 mph.
Charlotte, NC
Spent 10 years in Charlotte, a block away from an entrance to the McAlpine Creek Greenway.
Switched to a mountain bike from the road bikes I was accustomed to riding for 15 years.
The time spent on these trails was most appreciated.
