Tonight's Ride Report.
Oh, wow...61 degrees when I left work, sunny, winds NW at 12 or so...Hurry home (probably missed a Rene Herse for sale at the thrift store)pump up the tyres, get changed, leg warmers instead of tights, bottle of gatorade and awa-a-a-a-a-ay we go.

Didn't feel much wind when I left town, so I took off to the SW, spinning easy, anout 28 Km/H (gotta change that thing to read Murkan numbers!) figured I had maybe enough time to get 10 miles in B4 sunset (no lights yet!)

Nice, the sun, even low in the sky felt super, lots of kids out playing, dogs not in the mood to chase...
Got back home and pulled up in the drive just as the sun kissed the horizon. It don't get much better than that in March...

10.42 miles in 50:54, maximum speed of 30.76, average of 12.24MPH...

That honey-brown Brooks B-17 is not going to require much break-in. Never EVEN felt my sit-bones the whole way!
