Great Ride Except 35+ KM/H Winds


Good ride except 35+ KM/H winds. But the good think was that head winds were in the first half of the ride.
I always use GU energy gels for nutrition while riding but this time I tried PowerBar Performance Energy. I must say these are better in terms of energy but they are so difficult to eat while riding even though I broke them in smaller pieces. But they all meshed together in the pocket making it one again. You have to stop to eat them. Also they are so hard to chew that your jaw will give up when you are on the last bite. I will experiment with some other choices and let us see how how it goes.

Also today saw a snake on the trail and I almost ran over it because it was impossible to stop quickly at  40 KM/H when the snake suddenly came out of thick grass to cross the trail. Relieved it did not jump to bite for his safety sake.
