I am not sure why I am so slow. I just don’t have the drive to pedal any harder. I took the 1220 in for a tuneup on Tuesday. They called on Wednesday telling me I need new front gears and they have to ordered. I rode my 820 and was even slower. Then the weather changed, wind and cool weather that made me very slow. Definitely a slow spoke.

Northwest wind. Rode up BBD to SR54. Slow and drizzly. I wish I had worn long sleeves.
I went to the Starbucks outside of the outlet mall. The mall is a mess with the fall festival. And the Starbucks was not taking order ahead. Damn. I figured out my drink before I got to the cashier.
Grande Vanilla Cream with coconut milk and caramel sauce. Whipped cream? All melted but maybe it was there.
The drink is meh but the skies are clearing up.
I rode west to Cypress Creek the south to CLR. No shoulders on either road but no drivers were aggressive towards me.

A short ride today. I feel bad leaving my dad with his back pain.
NW wind. Rode Mansfield to Chancey to BBD and back through Seven Oaks.
I had to stop to get my dad some non-expired Tylenol. I was going to stop at Walgreens then remembered the Starbucks at Target. This will count for Coffeeneuring!
It was windy and I was slow. It was nice when I turned south and the wind was helping.
I went to Target and got some Tylenol for my dad. Then I got a Tall Pumpkin Creme for me. I got extra whip this time so I had some when I got my drink. It was missing the pumpkin spice topping.
I rode home.
