I try not to whine too much, but hokey smokes I’m sore after today’s ride. It was one of those which, by the end, produced a burn in the legs even at the slightest hint of an exertion. And it was shorter than last week’s ride by about 4 miles (72 today, 76 last week). Then again, I climbed about 1,400 feet more today, and over half of that climbing was in the last half of the ride.
Still, I feel good. Sore. Tired. But good. As in, a typical feeling after a ride.
And it was a good route. Saw about 15 miles I hadn’t seen before, and enjoyed them. Lots of farmland, but different farmland. It had a bit different feel to it for some reason.
All-in-all, a good day.
