Left the house for what ended up being a 31 mile ride of rural pavement
\nWhen I reached the unpaved forest service roads they were still a frozen, snow, mess
\nStop about 20 miles in for a sandwich at a local dinner
\nTrying out a new gel , cushy seat and rode with out bicycle pad shorts
\nAdded a Specialized carbon , zertz, seat post , I got by chance from my local bike shop, used (slightly) for $65
\nIt pays dividends to be a regular customer and support
\nI have been using a wingmut pack lately too. Initially I like it
\n
\nBeen running the 38s rather than 1.8" rubber
\n
\nTemp - mid 30s. , sunny, wind - high !
\nI got in a 23 mile ride last weekend
\nTough winter here, just nice to get out
