Took sick with various infections that sapped my strength after last week's hard rides. Though taking several days off with little or no exercise and abundant sleep just can't seem to shake the plague. Almost got back on the bike yesterday and felt really bad about missing rides in July as I will spend next winter dreaming about days such as these. Got back on the bike with a sore throat and earache that just won't give up. Had a good though not great start up Old Odessa and a nice climb out of Odessa. Hammered the rolling terrain to Mechlanberg and even had a descent climb up 79. Faded a little back through Bennettsberg but had a great twenty miles to that point. Coasted the big descent down 79 into Watkins and road easy through the traffic and back home. Felt odd to be back on the bike and though am still far from peak shape, the legs felt good and heart rate went up when I needed it.
