 Van Etten-Waverly
Soaking I took at the race on Sunday didn't do my health any favors as it continues to decline. Yesterday was cold and wet and spent most of the day in bed hoping the rest would put a damper on my various infections but still felt poorly this morning. Nice day though so I thought I would spend the it on the bike in the sun. The Waverly loop is the one of the flattest long course around here so I opted for it. Suffered up the first climb up Odessa hill and thought about heading back but eventually got over the top. After that though the ride wasn't too bad. Winds were gentle and sun was warm. Not really much happened on the ride other than many rotations of the cranks. Climbed the second and last climb of the day up old 17 to O'Briens out of Waverly and had my spin back so it went rather well. Cooler weather and easy pace kept my food and water requirements low so I bypassed the store in Chemung and kept going. Headed down Maple avenue again to avoid Jerusalem hill as I didn't want to strain my damaged body. Coasted the last fifteen miles with the wind at my back.
