I really love headwinds in both directions

Cold Caribou with Tom

Indoor Cycling

Peppier than desired

a long day thru the swiss foothills heartland. started off with a k at 12% on cold legs (🥊 guten morgen 🥴). gorgeous climb up mazots and then a plunge into Diablerets (watch all the vids, it was amazing). climb to glacier3000 went by in a jiffy (treed nearly the whole way) and enjoyed the waterfalls and tram at the top. long shallow descent to gstaad (well heeled town) and then the pastoral beauty surged along with the endless turns, ups and downs, reroutes, and kicker climbs. beautiful, but haaard. finally popped out into the traffic mad house that is Wimmis/Spiez and found safe refuge on the bike path along the lake (riding in traffic here is wild, you spend a lot of mental energy navigating twisty roads and endless turn options as well as drivers who love to crush the gas and brake pedals). final stretch to lauterbrunnen and then onto the train to wengen. big ice 🧊 adventures on tap for tomorrow.
