Well, I thought it was gonna be a reasonably warm day, because the numbers predicted showed a warmer day than yesterday. But, like, wind.
A number of fast riders came out.
Those were some of 'em.
They scared off a couple of people who were afraid they'd be falling off the back, so those folks desided to ride part of the route on their own.
The rest of us took off on a ride to the Blawenburg Cafe, to support what has become the favorite cafe of The Excellent Wife (TEW) and her husband, me.
Remember that wind to which I alluded, above? Yeah, well, we rode into it for more-or-less the first 60% of the ride. When some of the fast folks were off the front, I switched up the route so that we rode along Sunset instead of Skillman Road, because the headwind on Skillman is, well, memorable. But at Hollow and 518, we turned and the wind was behind us, and we coasted to the Blawenburg Cafe.
(Many thanks to the folks who actually sent some money there!)
The wind cooperated, and mostly blew us home, except for the last turn before the parking lot. I felt like the wind was trying to get payment for having given us an easy ride home.
