How was your ride today?

The challenge race a few of us participated in this past weekend was by far the most epic ride we’ve had since I started cycling a year ago.

All throughout the week we had forecasts of 90%+ precipitation all day Sunday. So, none of us were looking forward to ride. Luckily, when I woke up and was starting to get ready, I did not see any rain. This gave me enough motivation to get dressed and head out to the meet up point. Only did I get to the meet up point did it start to come down hard.

Luckily, we started the first 10km of the race dry, however, the conditions got worse and worse. 20km into a 90km route, there was not one inch of my body that was not wet. It got to the point where I wiped my face with my glove only to make it more wet. Due to muscle memory, I kept doing this. :doh:

All in all, despite the rain and cold temperatures, I had a good race day and could not be happier with my finish time. A great last race of 2015.
