Ugh. I got to a late start this morning when I woke up at 9am. Initially, I thought it would be too cold for me since I haven't bothered to buy arm or leg warmers. The TV said the temperature was in the upper 50s. But when I walked outdoors to get the paper, I thought it was quite nice out.
So I hopped on the bike and set out. And promptly realized that when I am moving I get a light breeze. Which lowers my perceived temperature with the added wind chill. But I warmed up after ten minutes.
The only problem was that the cold air exacerbated my asthma. So I couldn't do a longer haul like I wanted. I need to get working on my average speed as well. It took an hour to ride 16 miles. I'd like to get that down to 48 minutes. There are two lights and one big left turn that I have to wait for, so I need to subtract that time...
