The weather is changing so when I went out for today’s ride I was battling the sore muscles from yesterday’s hills at the Pineywoods Purgatory and a NNE 15 mph (gusts 18 mph) wind. At times I thought the wind was going to win but I kept pedaling although I was going slower than I would like. You can see on the speed chart below that I was real slowing when I was heading into the wind but made up for some of it when I turned south. The skies are still blue but there are wisps white as the front moves through. The temperature was a pleasant 80 degrees.

Other riders were not out on the road when I was so they were missing out on gorgeous weather.
