Tralee-Ballymac (O'Riadas)-Tralee
After seeing a nice morning yesterday I decided that i'd go outdoors today, especially seeing as it looked nice when I got up. Got the bike ready, a few bits and pieces to sort, and then on went the layers, etc.
At the start it felt a bit of a struggle but after a while it started to feel better. Over my shoulder on the way out I could see the clouds darken over the Mish mountains. Decided to turn at O'Riadas and then I picked up the pace, think i'd a slight headwind on the way out so a tailwind may have helped. After a while it started to drizzle a bit and then it got heavier. I also felt like I got back to Ballyseedy faster than I went out. As I got closer to Tralee it got heavier, not the most pleasant of conditions, but I felt ok, headwind at this stage too which made like a bit more difficult with rain in my eyes.
Anyway got back to the house drenched, even with overshoes my socks were damp, but at least my feet stayed warm. Good to get out on the bike in February, and makes a change from Turbo trainer. I also calibrated my speed/cadence sensor since i'd the GPS on too. So that should give me more accurate data for the turbo trainer next time i use it.
