I made it two laps around the park today. It was maybe 60 degrees out. By the time I was done w/ the ride it was in the low 50’s. Everyone was wearing their fall kit, with tights and long sleeve jerseys.
I decided to wear my tank-top summer jersey. Which I unzipped halfway into the first lap. I went slow, and managed to avoid the pins and needles of the last ride. I got some pins and needles going up the hill for the first time, but by that point, the sun had tucked behind the trees, and I was getting some cooler air.
I even made it a second lap. I’ll try for three tomorrow.
The key is wearing almost nothing, riding near dusk, stripping off layers as i go, and going slow. I can do this.
