Against the wind

Last Sunday I rode from Lieksa to Valtimo, about 80 km, in a constant headwind and light rain. The temperature was only about +11 degrees Celsius. I wore short bicycling shorts, because I don't (yet) own long ones. During the ride it became obvious that I was underdressed. There were times, when I asked myself, "Does this make any sense?" and "Is this fun?"

Then I replied to myself "yeah" and, with stiff legs, went on.

Distance: 81.6 km
Time: 3:03
Avg: 26.6 km/h
