| Comments: FINALLY 1st ride on Q3. Wanted to ride north towards Buckeye but the forecasted exponentially increasing wind would be stupid so decided to ride SE on the slow and bumpy Poudre River Trail instead. So increasing direct headwind out. Obviously MotherFckinNature was pissed with my plan so she changed the wind 75 degrees so I had exponentially increasing cross headwind on the return leg!! Fucking impossible to make any speed at all with short radius turns into ever-increasing headwind in both directions. Was as mentally taxing as it was physically!!! |

| Comments: CZ 26 Day 1: Formerly Saturday ride. Rode out almost say route as Day #2 therefore I was horribly confused and got lost 1st traffic circle. A fast couple past me on a turn as I was stopped to navigate. Took 8-10 miles but finally caught them. A couple from Houma , the gf/wife was a racer and VERY strong. She was pulling at 22-26mph with the tailwind and new pavement into Cecilia. They left the LA 31 brewery rest stop before I did. Rode solo rest of the ride in, and felt pretty shitty by the end into the headwind and uber-shitty pavement in spots. The 17.8mph avg at the brewery came down to 16.7 mph avg by the end. Felt completely hammered by the end. Awesome 2.5 hr nap after though.. ;-) 400' jumbo vertical, ATemp:76F, Cad:76 |

Or both? 1st decent ride in a while, also 1st ride in a while that didn't feel like a death march. 400' jumbo vertical, ATemp: 71F, Cad: 76.

| Comments: Now typical FoCO ride with 2-3X more headwind than tailwind. Think I did have some tailwind heading up canyon, DEFINITELY has violently gusty cross headwind on return. Had an upperbody/core workout just trying to keep bike on the pavement on the return. Was a beuatiful, clear, low humidiity morning. 1000' vertical, Cad:75, ATemp:78F. Still mentally draining with all the fucking climbing followed by all the fucking headwind. Total grind of a ride with very little easy sections. Brutal trail pavement for last 4 miles |

| Comments: Another absurd ride on Rawhide loop, but with exponentially increasing headwind on return leg with negligible tailwind on way up, if not actual headwind last 5 miles. Wind was supposed to be from North at 20mph, but was SSE at 25+ at times. Had to brake on some downhills just to keep from getting blown off the road. Total demoralizing, sole sucking ride no fun at all! All fucking climbing, then all headwind! 1300' climbing, Cad:74, ATemp:50F |

| Comments: Mentally brutal fucking ride!!! Headwind out of north! 10-20+ mph. Only avg'd 13.8 to turnaround point, then what should have been good tailwind only lasted 5 miles (to Owl Creek, but not after). Was spun out at 34mph from turnaround to Owl Creek. Mentally devastating. Was totally whiped out by end. But excellent nap.. ;-) Cad:74, 1100 vertical, ATemp:65F |

Only nearly blown off road twice. 2mph faster to top of ride than on Friday! Nowhere near as mentally or physically whiped as on Friday for a longer and hillier ride. 1,360 vertical, Cad:75, ATemp:64F |

Was faster than expected giving the completely type of climbing (shorter steeper rolling hills). Not too bad traffic on trail on way in. Much more scenic than FoCO. Cad:72, Vert:1,200, ATemp:64F |

| Comments: Rode Q3 on shorter but always feels harder, 42 mile Redstone loop. Forgot front D battery at home, Rode all the way up in small chainring, large chainring all the back until Poudre River trail, then small ring. Felt terribly slow climbing all the way up to Redstone school with slowest avg yet; 13.6mph!! There was some North headwind up the canyon but wasn't completely horrible. BUT; the lack of headwind/slight tailwind heading back down the canyon was AWESOME!! Made up some time. Never would have guessed the 16.7 mph avg after such pathetically slow climbing.

| Comments: 1st ride on Q3 in awhile. COnsistently from SE wind at a non-liner velocity. Wanted to ride 50 miles, but my right knee was tweaky after pushing the bottom 10 miles of the climb so bailed out for the Buckeye route. Knee felt better after the 1st 10 mile climb. 2 gravel riders turned on route at normal 40 mile turnaround so I chased then up another 4 miles to the Buckeye urnaround. Was surprised that I actually passed them easily at the 2% grade. Found myself joining a charity ride route on way in to FoCO. Felt like I spinning more, but avg was only 75, Cad:75, Vert: 1050', ATemp:63F |
