The SS Maiden Voyage

After a late start at school today and an inch of fresh powdery snow, I headed out to Bishop Lake for a ride. I rode Murray Lake Loop which is around 7 miles, but the snow was much deeper than I had expected. There was anywhere from 2-4.5 inches of snow. The first 35 minutes I was in my zone 1(75-85% of MAX) and it felt great to ride. I made it up most of the hills on the SS which surprisd me; my training must be helping!!! I was running a 32-18 gearing today, which is much smaller than my normal 36-16 on that trail. The SS worled great and will hopefully rn better tommorrow at ILRA.
