Burke Gilman & Sammamish River Trail Ride
Had a great ride on the trails today! It was the first time this year that I got my tri-bike out for a real ride so that felt great. I had been riding my road bike a few times outside because it is a bit more traffic-friendly, but have been mainly sticking to the tri bike on the trainer which tends to get b-o-r-i-n-g! The trails are perfect for not having to worry about traffic and getting an opportunity to ride in the aero position which is really tough to do (and not very safe) on roads with traffic. There was quite a headwind on the way out as I was struggling to stay over 17-18 mph. On the way back it was great! Was able to hold 19-20+ mph fairly easily! I also dropped my chain twice in the beginning….must make some adjustments to my front dérailleur.
