I slept in this morning.  It was a late night following a long day, and I had no desire to pull myself out of bed to ride.  That was a decision made when I went to bed last night.  In that decision, I also concluded I would ride Monday afternoon.  That I did.

I took it easy.  The “double red” blood donation spun me for a loop on Saturday and I still wasn’t fully recovered on Sunday.  I noted that it was easy to get my heart rate up on this ride, but I also noticed that my heart rate monitor was jumping all over the place early in the ride.  At one point it registered 174 when I estimate it was more accurately about 130.

Not much to say about the ride.  My mind was blank.  I just kept the pedals turning.  Some days are like that.  I can’t even say I enjoyed it.  I rode … that was it.
