Long Ride

Bundled up today and went for a long ride in the 40 degree weather. It felt really good to get outside and back on the roads. Riding on the trainer for the past several weeks has been boring!

The plan was to hit the road for 2 hours and 45 minutes. I left the house at about noon and I felt pretty weak when I got started because of the late night and the major toothache. Thankfully, the drugs kicked in overnight and I finally got some sleep. I think I am going to need a root canal early next week and I hope the antibiotic keeps the infection at bay. Once I got going, I felt stronger and stronger and was really happy with the ride. Getting into this season, I can already tell I am a lot stronger than I was at this point last year.

You can see a summary of my ride on the trainingpeaks website.
