3/25/12, Patterson-Whaley-Ol' 55, 14.4mi, 2.5LFC, C329.9, 32.9%

Short ride but with some hefty climbs. Tried going slow up Old 55 (from the west), it felt harder than just going for it up the hill as I usually try to do. Went harder up Harmony Hill and it felt better. Temps about 51, got sunnier as the ride went on. Weight down to 192.0 after the ride (high was somewhere around 209).

A little on the cool side (57F) to go without long sleeves on the downhills, but warm enough on all the climbs.

3/11/12, Quaker Ridge-Sherman-Wingdale, 34.1mi, C258.1, 25.8%2LFC,

Quarter of the way to goal for the year, but not a quarter of the way through the year yet. Temps in the mid-50s which was a little too warm on the uphills for even minimal winter gear, but I was glad of it on the downhills. Ride took longer than I thought so I missed Little Red Bake Shop which had kept me going on the second half, so had to slog up the last 3 miles of climb unfortified by biscuit, muffin, or coffee.
