Still feeling run down and really didn't feel like going out and riding in the nasty wind. Went out for a short climbing ride which would keep me out of any northern headwinds. Rode to Millport and went up Millport Hill road that has now been relabeled as Cemetery Hill. Climb is pretty steep at the bottom but fairly short and didn't fly up it but didn't embarrass myself either. Spun the climb up Middle Road to Seymourville and was satisfied with my climbing on it too. Coasted down Ridge Road to Odessa and tried to get to Lower Foots Hill Road for another climb and found the road closed due to bridge construction. Thought about bailing and just riding down the hill to home but convinced myself another climb would be a good idea and navigated around Odessa until I got back to the climb. Legs were a little tired and didn't do very well on the third climb of the day nor pushing the headwind along the ridge. Did get up to fifty on the decent to Burdett and had another fast decent into Watkins. Had another good time today and was glad I got out. Guess I'm just going to concentrate on hills as I have no desire to ride in the wind.
