Today's weather was phenomenal, so I joined the nine million other cyclists, runners, and pedestrians in the warm sunshine. Okay, there aren't nine million people in the Twin Cities - I exaggerated.
I avoided the crowds by sticking to streets, not trails, and heading east rather than west, shedding layers mile after mile.
As anticipated, being on my road bike was liberating. I felt like I was flying, even though I think I was only going my normal road bike speed. That is, until I got a flat.
After replacing the tube, I went more directly home than intended due to being nervous about getting another flat and not having my tire fully inflated. I did stop, though, to get a cup of coffee at the very great shop that is helping sponsor our team, and photographed my fashionable underlayers.
It's going to get cold again, but then it will get warm.
