The plan, probably developed while in fantasyland, was to ride / explore several roads west of US-501 for future hilly / scenic rides. Saturday's ride put an end to that fantasy. Why were my legs tired?
The distance -- no, Sat. was the fifth 70+ mile ride of the year and the last two had not been debilitating.
The climbing -- maybe, but was there really that much more climbing than "LongMill" or "Dabney"?
The pace -- yes, let's blame it on the pace, JonPaulS and JonWolfie.
Yes, that sounds right.
Effort index = 32.8 + 13.1 = 45.9 = 45.
LOL..JonWolfie :) sorry about the pace...
ReplyDeleteOh, the pace was fine. But complaining about makes for a better story.
