Afternoon Ride

Pinebrook/Jeremy Ranch w/ Hunter

A quick workout at Soledad. Would’ve done more riding but the weather, 50s, windy out of the South, and overcast, was not what I was looking for. Should’ve headed East where it was sunny and warm. 

Shredded my lungs on the “Homeless Man Alley” stretch with a decent tailwind. RPE 9-9.5. Lungs were not ready for that. Not conditioned for these kinds of efforts at the moment, but legs fresh and feeling... sloppy, if that makes any sense. Fresh fibers that need to be tuned up, perhaps. 

Kept a high pace up Soledad, starting with Pacifica, which felt tame after North Peak last week. Sustained effort felt pretty good, RPE ~7.5-8, without pushing into the red. 

Kept it in the big ring and strictly out of the saddle up Bachman. Got into a rhythm and felt comfortable sustaining it, unusual for me as I often prefer low cadence in-the-saddle climbing.
