What weather?

How’s the weather? What weather? Oh, you mean all this sunshine?
Coolest in the morning (35-40°F) and not so cool (65°F) in the afternoon. A lot of sun and warm enough if I’m just standing in the middle of a parking lot. However, if I’m on the bike pushing air, it can feel a bit chilly. Almost to the point of making me want something under my jersey. But then what would I do when I’m really standing on it. Unzip I guess.
So far this week I’ve done 80 miles. The time-trial-plus twice and yesterday the half-century route. The next few days I’ll do Ballard backwards and some flats just to let my legs recover and build strength. Does that make sense? If it doesn’t, let me know quickly.
Here’s something to think about. The roads are worse than last year – something approaching Texas farm roads. Coming down Ballard is definitely not for denture wearers. The wind comes up out of the northwest in the afternoon and makes a significant difference in how easy or hard some of the hills seem. The other day coming down Ballard, it was blowing me off my line. Really made it exciting for on coming traffic.
Well, it’s time to help with supper. So I’d better close for today.
So good to be in California! Sorry – I just had to say that.
