Maybe it warms up to the 60&#8217;s by Sunday. In the meantime Zwift is my biking location. I created a meetup riding the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/zwiftinsider.com\/route\/dust-in-the-wind\/\">Watopia Dust in the Wind route<\/a><\/strong> but I shortened the distance to 15 miles rather than the full 33 miles. I thought this would be the first time on the route but after the ride I check my <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/sporttracks.mobi\/activity\/27876843\">SportTracks log<\/a><\/strong> and found I rode the full route March 5th, 2021 as a solo ride. That took over 2 hours. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the end of today&#8217;s ride it was 44 degrees outside, well below my 60 degree threshold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The 15 miles today included 2 large climbs and numerous small ones. The total climbing came in at 1,017 feet. I think my Wahoo Kickr Snap smart trainer wasn&#8217;t adjusting the resistance for the climbs. I was pedaling at 90 rpm going up hill at 4 to 6 mph and around 130 to 150 watts. The effort didn&#8217;t feel like it was changing. About 9 miles I stopped and changed from connecting through the companion app to my desktop computer using the ANT+ dongle. I don&#8217;t know if that made a difference because the rods were mostly downhill from there. After the ride I turned the power off and back on for the trainer. I will see how it works tomorrow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>No problems with the live stream today using the OBS Studio program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;m waiting for my new glasses to get here. Without them and using a pair of reading glasses I can&#8217;t see the small print on my monitors while Zwifting. But I know where the buttons are.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It looks like I will fall short of my 300 road miles for February. Zwift miles looks good considering the days I took off for 2 cataract surgeries. I rode each day starting February 17th through today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Strava reported two personal records: <strong>PR<\/strong>\u00a0on\u00a0<a
