This morning there was a Cycle Buddy Ride for the AIDS/LifeCycle. My first plan, and a good one on a normal day, was to ride from my place in Emeryville over the hill to the Orinda BART to be there at the appointed ride time. When I stepped outside to go and ride early enough it was around 30°F. I quickly went back inside and slept for another hour and then ended up riding to the Rockridge BART and taking that over.
The ride itself was good, if a bit cold. I got to meet more cycle buddies and I had a good time riding with new people. There was ice on the side of the road at several points which was a little odd. I rode a decent pace the entire time. The only issue I had was a the end my left Achilles tendon was sore. Something is out of whack on my bike and I don’t yet know what. I’ll dig deeper into that this week.
