Calm morning ride. Still no 100.

It was a laggard start because the body was not fully recovered from yesterday’s ride. But I was not going to miss the opportunity of today’s ride. 

We took the Chintamani road today. The chiller the weather is it takes a longer for the body to warm up. I think when I warmed up, I then hit a mild exhaustion. When I kept peddling my breathing gets used to this state of exhaustion and then my body keeps the state of riding. 

Was a decent ride. Still not able to match up with Niket on his Bianchi, fitness counts a lot on what amount of power you can put on the pedals. He was gracious enough that when I was tiring he let the guard down a couple notches for me to regain ground and catch up  

It will be fun training with the group and riding with the group. My first 100 k ride may be next time.

Longest ride but Still waiting for the first century.

 

What a windy return. Loving the new road bike. It’s the machine pushing the man now.
