Another great day to ride though there was a little more wind than yesterday. Tried my climbing legs out up Old Odessa Hill and had a better than expected climb. Climbed steady out of Odessa and had a decent average speed up to the top. Started doing some math and thought I might be able to squeeze out an 18 mph average out of the ride with a decent secondary climb out of Mechlenberg and some big chainring work on the rest of the ride. Kept my focus and had a strong ride and a good time. Secondary climb was good enough to keep me within range and needed to average 22 for the last ten miles to meet my goal. Good news was I had a few hundred feet of elevation in my favor to work with and bad news was it is near impossible to get through the lights and traffic in Watkins at that speed. Got lucky though and got delayed by only two redlights. Finished well over 18 but then lost it after cooling down after stopping at the Post Office. Good ride overall.
