FINALLY! A ride after work, when it wasn't freezing and it was light out for part of the time! A miracle! Of course I totally missed my team again so rode solo but that's okay. Got in 3 solid loops and worked on pushing the hills again, spinning, out of the saddle, and cranking tough gears. I'm really loving chasing some of the cyclists down in the park with their fancy kits on. Very annoyed overall with some cycling bandits in jeans and shorts and other crap that were all over the place, and some runners and people strolling and trying to make me wreck, but I survived. Average cadence still hasn't topped 80 but my speed is getting up there. For 3 easy loops topping 17mph is good for me since I didn't put in the full effort and one loop was in some pretty tough gears. Left knee is a little banged up due to an accident I had yesterday (falling flat on my face at home) but the swelling is down and I was able to deal with it.
