Up 'n over
Threw a leg over the bike today and headed north of Fort Collins towards Rist Canyon. The wind was crazy today and threw a few 30+ mph gusts my way which almost blew me into the ditch. Once in the canyon the wind was better, but not gone all the way. Riding up Rist is tough in itself, but with a headwind the burn factor is bumped up.....to an 11!!
Rolled into Masonville with pretty spent legs and was going to cruise home, but I met up with another rider and we worked together and cranked the rest of the way to town around the south end of Horsetooth reservoir at a super fast pace. The wind had died down, sp we were able to take turns pulling at around 27 mph....feel the burn. Got back home with just over 3 hours of saddle time and 54 miles under the tires.

That's a pretty sweet map.
