33 miles. Another ride up the Jupiter Island stretch, this time with others. I started with the 6:30am group, went most of he way up with them, staying to talk with Adrienne Papa for the last 3 miles heading north. The way back was with a new rider to the group named Chris, Bob who I keep thinking is Kristy’s boyfriend, and Kristy. Chris is a powerful rider, pulling at over 24 mph into the wind. When it was my turn, I kept the needle at over 22 mph against the breeze, what a burn that gives the legs! I didn’t eat the Clif bars I brought, I finished one water bottle by the time I got back. Our route included the extra stretch of the road north of Bridge Rd Beach park to the preserve parking lot. When we returned, I ran 3/4 mi the swam with no sunscreen for 15-20 minutes in very wavy conditions. Good practice for those less than stellar ocean swim days.
This again?
