Comments: GWRT from Warren-ish, on an initially sunny afternoon/night, then mostly cloudy. Forgot how bad pavement on trail was in spots, especially intersections. Rode pretty hard at a relatively slow speed, not a good combination. Knees were tweaky but bearable throughout entire ride. 500'.. estimate

Comments: WRGT trail again on a breezy cool day. Crazy stupid on trail, including a group of 10+ horse riders, who were TOTALLY shocked that I was so rude as to use a public bike trail they were on...SMH...

Comments: Typical Chatfield ride during late Memorial Day morning, cool (55F), with building wind, yet again and brief light rain with a 0% chance yet again. Knees were ok until last mile. Felt half decent but still took it easy on the hills/rollers. Wind doubled on each of the 3 laps and switched directions. Last lap felt like headwind in almost every direction. 1000'

Comments: What was forecasted to be a 7mph wind turned to 15-25+mph wind from S. Knees were sore but given ludicrous wind, they held up ok. 13-15mph into headwind, 25mph+ with tailwind. 1,100+ vertical, felt like more given miles of headwind.

Comments: Well... weather forecast could not have been more wrong if you tried: 10% chance of rain, it rained, forecasted wind 4-8 mph from S, 10-15 from N, temp 65F by end...56F. But for once I think I may have had more tailwind than headwind? Cloudy, rainy in one spot, but legs were ok even though they didn't feel great at start. 1,100 vert

Comments: Mechanically challenging ride on a beautiful, but quickly warming morning from Chatfield. Started in MTbike shoes, but turned around to put road shoes on, then HRM died, cadence had low batt warning, but rode well after all that. Didn't feel too fast, but highest avg speed this year. Wind was very variable. Rode new road to neighborhood past Titan Road. Major cockblock twice due to car traffic in state park, once at 24mph! 1,200 vert. Ran into 2 NRELians at very end of ride
