/I feel like I should have had more miles this week. But the depression made me put off riding until the afternoon. At least I rode everyday. Well, that was easy knowing it helps with my moods.
Monday
68° humidity 85% wind 4 NE
Cloudy and windy. My legs didn't feel like pushing. I rode around some new roads but they were dead ends. I rode through Union Park. I hit a roofing nail along MPB and Sherringham. I didn't have my kit and had to call dad.

There was a little bit of sun but it disappeared before I got to BBD. The tailwind was great and I was up to 12.9 mph before I turned around.
A few sprinkles when I was almost home.

Wednesday
73° humidity 55% wind 8-9 NW
Too windy to be really enjoyable.
The gates were open at Gwynhurst so I rode through. It has been years since I went in. All the homes are complete. The path to SR56 stops short and there is a ditch. Will it be an open path? There is no fence now.
I changed to my regular glasses when I got back to MPB. It took a while to adjust.
