Warm weather at last....

What a difference a few days can make. Friday it was 32’F for my entire ride, and snowing.. Sunday there was blue skies and 50’F..now this is a nice day for February.
I had to work all Saturday, so on Sunday I was definitely ready for a longer ride.
I tried out a new route… headed east at first thru some small villages and then cut south down and around Petworth… I don’t know if it was the weather or the new roads but it was brilliant. My legs though were a bit worn down from the previous week..
I leave on Friday and will not touch my bike until earliest Tuesday next week…so I decided to push thou this last few days…maybe not the smartest thing…but as long as I don’t get sick, or push too hard.
Sunday afternoon I took a nap, or tired….my plan was to try and get some rest before watching the 11:30pm kickoff time for the Superbowl. I don’t watch much football anymore, but when your home team reached the final…I’ll give it a go.
At halftime around 1:30am I Seattle was down 3 to 7, and I didn’t have much desire to sit though the entire halftime show, so I went to bed. I didn’t want to waste the entire next day, I had planned to at least get a short ride in.

Hi Mike... I didn't realize you had a blog or I would have been reading it to see what you were doing. This is great. You give different details than Jess/Kele...so I get an even bigger picture. Even to get a sense of how much you ride too. I'll be staying in touch this way. I'm happy to find this. Molly
