After yesterday’s extra miles I was planning on today to be an easier pace recovery day but the great weather got the best of me at times. With the temperature at 90 degrees, a gentle breeze at my back (S at 9 mph) I rode faster and harder than I would want to on a recovery day. It was nice even though I got a little later start than I wanted. I beat the sun home but just by a whisker.
