An Appetizer

After a busy weekend that kept me off the bike, I tried to ease into it a bit, with what will no doubt be a little appetizer to the main meal of riding later this week.

Cranked is sponsoring my weekday daily Tour de France episodes this year on my PhilCast podcast radio show.

The TdF begins this Saturday!

Hard to believe, but such is 2020.

The weather was certainly uninspiring, a muggy cloudy day. In fact, I felt a drop at one point in the middle of this ride...or maybe that was bird?!

Anyway, wouldn't you know it, the sun came out right after I had quit the ride. This was a little wakeup call for my legs. I still hope to be doing something much bigger later this week.
