We’ve still been having hot weather lately, into the 90s F (low 30s C). But at least since the days are getting shorter it is cooling off nicely at night. I’m looking forward to it’s being officially fall soon and hope the weather will start matching it.
My riding has been pleasant because it is cool in the mornings. Last Tuesday my group rode out to the end of Redwood Retreat road West of Morgan Hill, about 2 1/2 hours on my upright. It was a great ride, but my neck was stiff at the end. I am prone to neck issues, which I try to minimize on a conventional bike by staying more upright, as well as standing up to pedal often. I did these but still had an issue, the neck bugged me for more than a day after. So I think I’ll stick to my recumbent on longer rides, including my group rides. As long as the ride is an hour or less I do fine on the upright..
Wednesday I had a relatively short (90 minutes) but still challenging hard ride on my recumbent, which felt great. I especially enjoyed Friday, a long brisk cruise out and back on Coyote Creek trail.
