I was waffling on whether to go on a ride tonight that I mapped out to be 68 km, since I hadn't ridden the bike I wanted to take for a month and had just put the studded tires on today. But I did end up going, a decision I rarely regret, the ride ended up being 71 km and taking 3 h 15. It started off at -1C and dropped to -5C by the time I got back. During the last 15 km I had a 22 km headwind which was a little less pleasant than rest of the ride had been. I started running out of juice the last 10 km, so did my headlights, first my handlebar light dropped into low power mode, then my helmet light.
Its sad to see how few people in the local strava clubs have ridden outside this week. There have been some very nice evenings. I've ridden in the dark every night this week. 4/5 rides were on my fat bike and I managed to put in more km than the Zwifters even before tonight's ride.
