As I have not been able to ride outside since a week ago today, I was eager to do ao. Last Sunday I was busy preparing to leave on a trip, and took it as a rest day from riding±then Monday through Thursday, Michelle and I spent in the Upper Peninsula, at a cabin in Paradise (near Tahquamenon Falls). They were called "Lakeview Cabins," and here is the view we had of Lake Superior from our yard.
Yesterday's forecast was for rain all day, so I went to LA Fitness in the afternoon, even though I felt rather silly about it, as it was sunny when I left home, and sunny when I left there to return home, too. Last night, the hourly forecast for today looked as an outdoor ride was not in the cards, and I'd have to return to LA Fitness. However, by the time I woke this morning, the forecast had changed enough so that it looked as though I could ride.
I left at 8:15 in damp, cool (67°) conditions, and though I had hoped to do consecutive round trips to Marsh Park, the challenge of pushing through the thick, moist air convinced me to settle for one, and I did this 9.9-mile ride in 1:18.
