Pleased

A Tempo workout was on tap for today, and it ended up being more intense than I initially expected. Part of the workout calls for keeping the cadence low, in the 70-75rpm range. On the way out that was easy as I was battling a nasty headwind. On the way back I just didn't have a high enough gear to keep in the 70-ish range. I was turning my biggest gear and I was still hitting mid to upper 90 rpms. I wish that was my enormous talent shining through, but a lovely tailwind was no doubt helping me along...so much so that I averaged 23mph on the way back. Very nice.

I'm pleased with the first ride of the week.
