I just got back from a winter training ride. This morning it was apparent that I may not even get to ride. It rained all day and the conditions after work were dismal. After some good ol coffee, a bag of barbeque chips, and yogurt I was up for anything. So I set off on my Trek single speed.
My route was unique. It took me through the streets of Missoula and behind the university. Then I threaded some bike paths along the river to the California Street Bridge. This bridge is cool and it is like a mini golden gate bridge for bikes and pedestrians. I then headed up and over the bridge on Scott Street. Then out to Reserve and up to Snow Bowl Road.
The entire route was around 26 miles with 1,100 feet climbing. The conditions were not cold but after getting wet it did start getting cold. Now it is over and I am about to hit the sack. This weekend is still up in the air and this work week was once again one of the most stressful. I must get caught up in sleep and so then I must go.
ON THIS DAY IN HISTORY
