9/5/26

Planned to ride 40 miles today. Woke up early, it was raining. Had a 9am meeting. Had planned to do it on the bike. Fortunately, I was delayed to do the rain because the ear piece on the Bluetooth hurt my ears. Finally got started about 10:30am.

Had planned on going through MSU. Even with the students there I figured they'd still be sleep, but that was for around 8-9am. Around 11-12am everyone is up and moving around.

Couldn't get through to Valhalla Park. The underpass was flooded, had to turn around. Did take advantage of being in the lowlands to work on my climbing skills and I must say I'm getting the hang of it.
