Chilly Champagne Bakery

Rode the 60+ Champagne Bakery ride with Amber today. It was 55F most of the way with intermittent rain. You know the kind - as soon as you get your jacket on it stops raining and a few minutes after you take your jacket off you feel raindrops again. Fortunately we only got a few minutes of light rain and a few more of sparse drops.

The Champagne Bakery was a good as always. I had Black Forest Gateaux  and Amber had a Napolean - both excellent. And we shared a basket of bread and butter which is our version of carbo-loading. Pointless in the middle of a 60 mile ride but we don't care :-)

For some reason I got lactic acid buildup in my legs during the climbing section. Oh well - it just made me even slower on that section than usual.

Great ride, despite the rain.
