 Rain Pause
Decided to ride today whether it was raining or not as I have only ridden 17 miles in the last five days, so I put on the rain gear and headed out. At least the legs were fresh and had a strong climb up Odessa hill. Sun came out as I neared the top of the climb and it was putting out quite a bit of heat. Planned on riding to Mechlenburg and score thirty miles or so then decided to add some miles if it didn't start raining. Had a nice tailwind so kept to the flats and rode to Trumansburg then headed up the six mile climb toward Searsburg. Had another sweet climb as the wind pushed me up the hill. Only drawback was overheating from the wet weather gear. Finished off the ride with a dozen miles of downhill. Fun dry ride.
