It was a typical fall morning, clear and chilly 5 Celsius. Jack was on his summer cycling outfit, short sleeve jersey and fingerless gloves while I had my icebreaker on. We rode along Carling to Terry Fox and 2nd line, barely saw any cyclist . With only two in a paceline, it was hard to keep 30+ all the time. Near Carp , an elderly on his way to Almonte for his 2nd breakfast caught us, he was a strong rider, we drafted him for a few kilometers before T.A.Dolan.

Today we decided not to go beyond 6th line to the river, one of our cycling friends had a broken dérailleur there last week. We took a detour to Pinhey's Point, just sit on the bench and enjoy the scenery and the sun.

We flew down the newly paved 6th line at 40+, that felt good, you know.
My bike and I both look good. :-)
ReplyDeleteIt was chilly for me at the beginning but I was fine once I warmed up.
You do, I'm more impressed by your cold resistance.
DeleteHehe. I'm buying arm warmers. :)
Deleteactually icebreaker(merino jersey) is pretty good idea. i have 3 piece merino jersey/short. warm and breathable.
DeleteWhat about shorts? I like the padded shorted but soon I'd need more.
Deletenice ride and nice report and jack looks nice too. :-)
