Apr-11:

PUE: DocN-Stem-Hester-MtEnergy-Grissom 100k  +  detour onto RockSpringChRd; w/ the Duke, Dave-ntW, Iva, Phil; strong / gusty Westerly winds; 65.0 m.; est 3180 feet climbed --> effort index = 96; 4hrs, 5min; 15.9 mph avg pace.

1st Qt. tot: 20 rides; 755.3 m.; 47 hrs, 31 min; 15.9 mph.
Apr tot: 5 rides; 277.5 m.; 17 hrs, 29 min; 15.9 mph.
YTD: 25 rides; 1032.8 m.; 65 hrs, 0 min; 15.9 mph. 

Nice ride. The wind dried things out nicely after the rain. However, as it got drier, and windier, and gustier, more yellow pine pollen was blown into the air, and we rode through a yellow haze the last half of the ride. Makes one appreciate the clear conditions in which we started.
