On Friday Dan and I went out with a couple of other people on a SRFFK. We did about 25 miles total. Our average pace was around 13 or 14 mph. The reason it was so slow was the crazy headwind that we encountered regardless of which direction the road turned. For most of the way I led the pack as the air bulldozer, creating a bit of a windbreak for everyone behind me. One particular stretch of long slog we went about 11 mph, barely making headway on a flat road. At one point we even smelled salt like we were at the ocean. On the way back into town, we hit a stretch where we were with the wind. According to my speedometer and the way the wind died down when I hit a certain speed, the wind was blowing at a steady 25 mph. It was quite the slow ride for fat kids!
