I fully intended on a Recovery ride today. I wound up pushing it just a tad however. One due to the "spritzing" or as my neighbor fondly calls it "pissin" through most of my ride. It was very light. Not even enough to wet the roads. Just enough drizzle to annoy you kinda thing. I had already started out and figured I could cut it short if I had to. I didn't since it just stayed light. The second reason was I needed to get my butt home, clean the house, vaccum and shower before a friend of mine shows up for dinner and a movie at 5:30 p.m.
I met up the same two does and their babies on my second loop where I stop to turn around. They were headed into the woods nearby. I figured it had to be them. Oddly, on my way home on Druck Valley another doe and her baby by the power lines. I'm sure the gray skies had them active. I'm just glad none of them ran out in front of me. I don't need that accident again!
I spent most of the ride slowing a lot due to the brakes being a tad wet. I didn't want to panic again. It does seem my right clip is a bit tight. I may have to stop at my LBS and have that adjusted. I don't want a repeat brain fart! I practiced stopping slightly harder using the rear brake on purpose as well today.
Sadly, now the sun is out. Oh well! I'm headed out soon for a nice taco salad
