37th outdoor ride of 2021 - Wednesday, May 5, 2021

2021 mileage: 2615.6

Today I fully intended to ride to Matthei. But when I began, at 10:30, in unseasonably chilly conditions (43°, which combined with a healthy 13 mph wind to bring the wind-chill down into the low thirties ... and here I had thought "wind-chill" was a bit of terminology we had left behind until late this year!), I rode less than a mile before changing my plans so that I rode "just" the Platt/Packard Square. (Or actually a modified version thereof ... I reconfigured the northeast corner of it so that I could ride by Pheasant Run Apartments, where Michelle and I used to live.)



We were at Pheasant Run from the time we were married (December 1993) until we bought our present home and moved into it in the spring of 2004.

The conditions made both my gloves and the fleece I wore over my hoodie feel just perfect! This gave me a ride of 13.6 miles in 1:33.
