Another hot day expected so out early enough to have pleasant enough conditions -- upper 70s, light breeze from the south, and humid. But a lot better than going later.
Really nice outing with lots of variety -- some flat with little or no traffic to get started, occasional modest ups to get the heart going, some lovely dirt road sections, and even a section I hadn't been on, though the Horse Mountain saddle just east of Mountain Street Reservoir. Didn't know how bad the short steep section would be. Turned out to be just right, not easy and not impossible. I had good bike control in the rocky section and made it up. Maybe I'm getting a little better at this stuff. :-)
