overdressed

Yesterday I had a weird knee pain deep in the capsule and didn't much about it. So, I decided to go for a ride this afternoon when I got a call last night from Tim Ek. I swung into his place over in Piedmont and we continued SSW to Esko. I hardly check the weather outside because we haven't really seen anything as of yet that resembles spring which led me to throw on the normal attire. MISTAKE... with warm winds coming from the direction we were heading and about two too many layers on I was drenched in sweat by the time we made a turn in the loop. Tim saw 42F on his shed thermometer and guessed it was blowing 25 mph. I brought a fair amount of replenishment but I needed more today from battling the gusts in the first half. I felt quite pathetic bringing my carcass back home as I was spent upon reaching Kenwood Ave. However, I tend to think a person benefits from these days as it forces the body to dig deep and find reserves it didn't know it had. I will more carefully consider my wardrobe before heading out the door next though!!
