This weekend has been superlative: sunny and temps in the 70s. On Saturday I rode my 50-mile loop though Harvard, down to Northboro, then back up the Assabet rail trail in Marlboro/Hudson, then up to Stow, Boxboro and home to Littleton. Average time for the ride was a little disappointing -- less than 15 mph. The hills around here are pretty tough, so I'll use that as my excuse.. At least I have a level-set and have left myself some room for improvement on my training... Don't want to peak too soon. :-)
On the up-side, no soreness at all so my off-season conditioning hasn't been a complete waste. I just need to lose some "luggage" and log more miles. Wish I had some pix to post. Will try to start carrying a camera with me.
