Covering all the Ps this morning. I’m a wimp when it comes to the cold lately and was worried about freezing. Turns out it was a perfect temperature.

Another dam ride
Windy Wednesday with beautiful views and fun road climbs. Spring days are some of the best riding with perfect temperatures, emerging greens, blue skies and a bit of bonking. The ride – Paradise The bike – Time VRS Fluidity

It’s Like Paradise

The sun shone, the temperature was a perfect 70 degrees and there was but a gentile breeze. It’s hard to pick better road bike days. If it wasn’t for meetings and complaining legs
