I road to work again yesterday and it was really a tale of two rides. In the morning I had a tail wind gusting up to thirty mph and it was great. Made it to work in 49 minutes – the fastest ever for my south bound trip. In the evening it was raining and the wind was blowing harder and more consistently from the NE again. It was hellacious. It was difficult to go ten miles an hour. I was exhausted by the end of the long trip home.
The waves were spectacular on both rides. In the evening they were really crashing up on the walkways and spraying or soaking folks, depending on how lucky you were. Traffic was light both ways, but the weather seemed to effect the bike riders more that the runners. Not too many smiles on faces either way yesterday.
It still was a great day in Chicago, though.
Take care.
