I managed to get out for a long ride today, 75km in 3 hours on the dot. Perfect day, max 10km/h wind, 23 degrees full sun. I followed the Grand River up to Kitchener along the trails, back by road. All terrain route from rocky boulder paths to 4 lane highway and plenty hills along the way. The muscles above my knee started cramping on the way back, I guess I got behind on my water intake, more water and a sweet & salty snack helped.
Summer is the best. Traffic lights are the devil though. Suddenly having to stop with no further cooling from the wind it only takes 30 seconds to effectively go blind... Helmet for safety, as long as you keep moving lol. Always fun crossing a huge intersection with salt burning your eyes!
