ahr:146 max:168 shoes: Specialized Comp mountain
4C and windy tested my resolve to ride the south shore of Lake Simcoe. I drove up to park on the lake, where it was supposed to be free, but I guess they decided to extend the $20 a day for a few weeks. I back tracked up to ROC and parked there.
I started west wanting to get around the bottom of Cooks Bay - the finger of the lake extending south. I made a couple of bad turns on short residential streets, but it stretched the distance to my target of 65km. Ravenshoe ends before the maps suggest and is really just farm access for the last few kilometres.
I took more of the main road going back to minimize how many times I had to cross Metro, which is fairly busy in Keswick. I managed to ride the whole of this portion of the lake shore, so job done.
Nutrition: 1 Tailwind Ride, 1 Lara bar, 1 Honey Stinger chews - I could have used a couple hundred more calories.

It was a nice surprise to see the rain is going to hold off until mid afternoon. Too bad I have too many errands to fit in a good, long bike ride.

Only 6C so I wore my storm pants over tights and a vest under my light jacket.
Being Sunday morning, I tried going east on Mulock. Traffic was light, but I still had an oncoming car turn left in front of me when I was half way through the intersection. I called him a name.
Nice quiet road for the chase route (Flight gives me a 45 minute head start when she follows). Legs were a bit lazy, but it was good to get out for a proper workout.

Down the hill, fighting through the fallen tree parts and massive weed growth to get to the paved path. These shoes were much better, but still not quite what I would like: too much heel and a bit of toe pressure running.
I don’t think I like hard surfaces.
