As expected the weather today meant Zwift to the rescue. I chose the SZR ride because of the time of day fit my schedule to watch the University of Cincinnati Bearcats play in the Birmingham Bowl. The ride began at 12:00 PM and lasted 56:38 while biked 18.85 miles.

Yesterday I learned the camera view can be changed in Zwift. During today’s ride I used a wireless keyboard and switched camera views. Some of the views offered a slight change but one I liked most switched to different positions along the route. I streamed the ride live on Twitch.tv/texbiker.

The fence caught me a few times today but I slowed and went back behind. The last 5 K was fence free and the pace picked up some. I noticed one rider on a mountain bike from the flat handle bars. It might have been hard to keep the pace with MTB gearing and tires.

Friday the weather shows some improvement but Saturday is more likely to be the first outdoor ride in 2020.
