Incredibly profound yet fantastically flawed
Day 12 - Part I and Part II (total time ~ 2:30)
Got out over lunch for a quick near-hour ride. Very nasty headwind out there today -- not a nice cooling wind, but a rotten furnace hot wind that seemed to turn with me to always stay in my face. I dislike wind enough on its own. Today was liked having God fart in my face for an hour ...
The evening ride was a bit better - got out in Wissahickon. It was burning hot the whole time, but I met up with a buddy of mine halfway through and we rode the new bypass trail. Its technically not open even though it's finished and probably should be because it needs to be ridden in, but it's also technically not really 'new' - the second half of it is the old connector trail behind the Wises Mill mansion. That goes back a bit for those who know Wiss: that trail has been shut down since probably 2002 or so. Nice to see it open again!
Hiding out from the heat for a moment in the covered bridge ...
