Enough of the wind already

At least today it was in my face on the way out, and behind me on the return.

Schedule: bike 1:40 including 2 x 20 mins @ threshold

Actual: 1:32 but no HRM - steady effort

Route was out to Spooner Row including a detour to investigate the "closure" of St Thomas' Lane (which wasn't blocked, just barriered) and Potash Lane (which was barriered south of Lotus - I could have investigated but there was a low loader reversing). Had a good meander out there (just over an hour) and zoomed back along the old A11 (just about half an hour). Max speed on the way back was 32mph and I reckon I maintained 22-23mph average between Spooner Row and Wymondham. Hardly any traffic, glorious weather, just that damn wind!! Still, when it got behind me it was great.
