Yes, it’s possible to get sunburned in the small strip of skin between your bike glove and your watch. (Best option: sunscreen, then watch.)
I rode all the way in to work today and it took me 46 minutes total (including stopping time). I am getting faster. (I think I had a partial tailwind too, though it sure as heck didn’t feel like it. It was very windy today, and when I turned broadside to the Bay I got a headwind.) We got three people riding all the way in today at work, our own mini-BTWD!
I’m thinking of two rides this weekend. By myself, Saturday morning, either Sand Hill/Woodside or Portola Loop (Sand Hill/Portola/Alpine), and with friends, Monday, up Edgewood and down Canada, possibly venturing into Portola territory again. Sounds ambitious, but next weekend is the Sequoia ride, so it’s time to step it up. Soon after that it’ll be time to start proper training for Waves to Wine!
