Finally made it outside for a long ride and what a nice day to be out on the bike. Started out a little chilly at 40 degrees, but easily was in the 50s an hour later. Good thing it was a nice day as our group was all over the place today, some of us did part of the ride in one direction while others did it the other, quite the comedy out there. One good thing, no one had any breakdowns so we all made it back in one piece.
I felt pretty good through the first 50 miles and then started to feel it a little bit in the legs. Still had enough to power any hills at the end, but overall very happy and feel like the work on the trainer has paid off even though the overall speed was a little slower than I had hoped. The numbers from the Garmin on the link below.
Also had the opportunity to jump on a scale during the ride to check my rate of dehydration, will post the photo along once Melinda sends it to me. Turns out I lost 30lbs in the first 38 miles of the ride!
