My quads seemed to be fatiguing rather quickly. It seemed the saddle was a bit too low.
At 21.65 miles (corner of DocN + OliveBranch), I raised the saddle a few mms.
Immediately felt better and more comfortable.
Different, anyway.
Q: What is the difference between "spinning out the legs" and a "time trial"?
Especially when the course is the same.
Especially when the "spin out the legs" ride turns out to be the 3rd fastest ride so far this year.
A: The mental approach.
For those that would like a little more quantitative analysis to go with that touchy-feely answer,
How about this: it took 33 minutes to cover the last 10.3 miles instead of 31 and change.
