I just got back from my Saturday ride -
17.4 miles in 1:20 (about 13.5 mph), not counting the stop around mile 13 which just happened to be at Java Jive. Turned out that wasn't such a great idea. It was a little on the chilly side (mid-60s) this morning and after sitting and drinking my latte for a while, it was a hard to get going again. I had a hill to climb right away and my legs felt awful. Next time I'll try not to have any prolonged stops.
Mostly, today's ride was pretty level but a few longer climbs on Evans Rd. and Cary Pkwy. were tough. I made it though - even if it was at ~4 mph. I was trying to work on distance and maintaining a better speed. I think I did OK, but I was definitely feeling the WCF when I first left the house. Jim & I went for a ride yesterday afternoon, which was great, but I got a little sunburned so the wind felt extra cold this morning.
I wish I could measure up to you guys with the $$$ - I am not getting it done. What's the secret? Why am I so lame?
Oh, and I forgot to add - happy Derby Day. Hope you guys have a fun party today.

Good ride Polly! Nancy and I are doing another longer ride this afternoon after she comes home from a meeting.
