Teammies

First team ride of the year with actual teammates. Rode out of Irwin's on 40th in lower Wallingford at 9AM and went south along Lake WA over the I-90 bridge and then out to east of nowhere.

Street names like May Valley, Issaquah-Hobart, Cedar Grove, a couple 200 numbered roads, Petrovitsky came & went in unfamiliar fashion, before returning to friendly territory in Kent & Renton.

Ride was in the high 30's (perhaps hitting 40 in a few spots) and mostly dry except toward the later 15-20 minutes where the skies finally opened up.

My PowerTap had the ride data just shy of 75 miles in just over 4 hours, averaging 17.4 mph, with an average watt reading of only 180 (what that's all?) and 2721 estimated calories burned.

Jamie continues to ride stellar and Chad was rock solid as well despite his working 90+ hours a week. Post-ride burrito was consumed handily. Legs were definitely challenged today and felt comfortably tired. Tomorrow another solo long (& perhaps hilly) day in sunny LA.

Six weeks until Mason Lake #1.
