There are not likely to be too many more FOG rides this year as snow is likely just around the corner but this morning the weather was cooperative and 5 of us did the full standard FOG route. We started with 6 but someone bailed early, some thing about a ‘cross race tomorrow.
I was up in plenty of time to get organized and ride over to the Legion for the 9am start but as I leave the driveway I hear “squeak, squeak, squeak”, it’s the new booties rubbing the crank arm. Do I want to listen to that for the next 4+ hrs? Nope, back to the garage to adjust my cleats. Good thing I went back because I’d left the water bottles on the counter. All this extra messing around and now it’s not a leisurely ride to the Legion, but more of the time trial pace to make sure I’m there at 9.
Anyway a good ride as always, a little cool but the intermittent sunshine made you think it was a bit warmer that it actually was.
Hope the Strava guys have fixed their stuff and the route picture shows up now.
