| Comments: WELL:.. Started ride at northern end of PdB with a little upset stomach, but no TP at bathrooms. Decided to ride anyway. Next restroom I saw was at 9 miles near downtown ABQ, Tingley Beach. I absolutely couldn't wait any longer at that point. Luckily I took my wallet, keys, cell phone, cyclometer in with me. I was only in there 90-120 seconds. But it was gone when I came back out...GRRRRR ABQ police were worthless! Had to take an Uber back to car. The bike was actually fairly well dialed in with less handlebar interference than Q1, but was noisier. Cad:77, ATemp:56F. |

SUBSTANTIALLY more headwind than tailwind made comarison to the Carbent impossible, however the ist 15 miles (3 laps) were consistently slower (uphill) then the Carbent. But I was cockblocked 3 times in the 1st 5 miles. Weather forecast was correct for once. 0-5mph tailwaind, steadily increasing headwind 10-20mph+. The bike felt slightly softer on the shitty sections. 800' vertical, ATemp:64F |

| 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!!! |

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 |

| Comments: CZ 26, Day 2, Henderson Levee Rd and Red's Levee Bar. FINALLY beginning to get some legs or FINALLY a ride without significantly more headwind than tailwind? 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. Knees were not great but were manageable... spun as much as I could |

| Comments: Easy social to meet TIm and Steven at Bush Park. Impossible to make any time with giant puddle and crappy wooden bridge twice. Was nice to ride without trying to time trial entire ride. 300 jumbo vert, ATemp:80F, Cad:71 |

| Comments: VERY HUMID morning from Hempstead McD. Relatively light wind but swirling, headwind heading south to strat, cross headwind heading north at end. Saw many more riders today, saw a Cruzbike heading out of Monaville as I was heading to store. Half-decent ride overall, but jersey was soaking wet by end. 450' jumbo humid vertical, ATemp:75F, 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 |

| Comments: FINALLY had a reasonable day to ride!! Headwind was only 2-3X minimal headwind. Headwind from SSE steadily increasing from less than 5 mph on way out to 10-15mph on way in. 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 |
