Rained a lot in the morning, and then was mid-afternoon before it actually stopped, which left just enough time for the roads to get a little bit dry before I headed out.
To Montague Center and the hills just above it. Continuing my efforts this year to ride more standing up. Partly to get better at it, partly because it's a good remedy for any saddle-induced ailments. And also partly because it helps me climb a little better.
So similar goals today as many other days, even though the route always changes. Pick a hill or two or three as targets for a full effort, and then on all the other ups just keep working on riding out of the saddle -- pace, cadence, gear choice, shifting, position, etc.
It's all getting better, even if slowly. But that adds a lot of good motivation. :-)
