Since I could not break out of the 20s on Shelby Bottoms’s greenway twice in a row I ventured out into the hills for 2 laps — about 8 extra miles — & came in at 32 miles albeit in a lugubrious 2 hours & 17 minutes. The legs feel fine but after 2 months of indoor exercise they need at least 2 months to become Cycling Ready. The Weather was lovely with just enough wind to make things tougher.
My watch gave me an elevation gain of 1064 feet so naturally I prefer it.
Outside is so much tougher than inside & so much fore worthwhile.
