The Numbers

Here is the data from the ride. Behind these numbers it wasn’t all peace and calm. There were difficulties, but I was pleased that I improved daily and could have ridden back home if time allowed. My benchmark for performance is now at a higher level, and I’m grateful for that. Would I do it again? Yes.
