Woke up at 0600 to do a long bike -- one last long one before the Big Swing to La Crosse on Thursday.
The weather was shitty from the start; not horrible, but cold, dull and breezy. For a change of pace I took M to F to Hudson. It was SLOW-GOING. When I got to Hudson I felt tired and cold, so I stopped at the Comfort Inn for coffee. For a while I thought about just turning back to RF, but I grew some nuts and kept rolling.
Things got better on my ride into Stillwater and I picked up the speed a bit. I cross the bridge into Houlton and was dismayed to find MORE headwind, even rolling east into Wisconsin. Things improved once I got on the 4-lane WI64 and I hit a pretty good pace.
The last bit to Brandie's was a northerly route, gradually uphill, into the wind. SUCKED. Rolled to her house for an even 40 in 2:20 -- pretty mediocre effort. Very boring, not very enjoyable, that's for sure.
