2024 MILEAGE - 1173.4
Todsy I did only my 4th outdoor ride this year—the first since February 20, and the longest since November 16. I was hoping to ride my old familiar route, a 13.6-mile square that is my most frequent ride. However, the connection between my battery and my phone was acting up, being problematic, and rather than risk having my phone die, stranding me without the ability to contact anyone if I had a problem, I shortened my planned ride, turning to ride along Ellsworth when I got just past Lillie Park, rather than going north all the way to Packard as I more usually do.
The ability to ride outside at all, however, was only made possible by our freakishly warm weather—I just heard on the news that this has been the 4th warmest winter in recorded history for Michigan. When I left at 3:00, though I had to contend with a significant wind, it was 70° and mostly sunny.
Today gave me a ride of 11.8 miles in 1:35.
