 Hot & Windy
Nasty North wind had been gusting all day and combining that with the hot weather and tired legs made me think about taking the day off. Decided to at least ride some hills around town. Planned on going to Reading Center first but while climbing out of Watkins found that the wind was mainly blowing out of the west and wasn't that big of a factor as long as I kept going perpendicular to it. Headed for Dundee but abandoned that after climbing out of Lakemont. Wind was brutal but managable as long as I was on the lee side of the hill, but when I crested the hill it was straight into it to Dundee. Even though it was downhill I abandoned and turned around and headed back the way I came. Didn't get much distance in nor much hill work in but turned out to be a descent but short day on the bike.
