10-16-2010 Ride

Ride from home up to Jim's, with a ride up to the street above ours to look at the new houses and a loop around his block while waiting. It was overcast and a little misty at the beginning. All four of us rode, and the mist got heavier until it was light rain on the flats on Highland Valley Rd before the climbs. I was behind Dave on the first climb but slightly ahead of him on the bigger climbs. This was a wet ride, never really raining hard but misting and drizzling throughout. Went out to the 67 and back. Sometime on the way back, my cycle computer stopped working. So far, I haven't been able to revive it, so it may be truly dead this time. Alas. Finished the ride feeling okay, just thoroughly wet and still not in great shape.

Total mileage = 30.8 mi
Average heartrate = 154 bpm
Total elevation gain = 1740'
