What a gorgeous day Saturday started out being - if not for the HORRENDOUS head wind we encountered coming up C470 trail, it would have been perfect. Oh well, they can't all be "nice" rides.
However, this Saturday is supposed to be nice out, and we're taking advantage of good weather while we have it. It's been some time since we've done any climbing, so we'll tackle Dinosaur Ridge and Red Rocks this Saturday the 16th. Check the weather before heading over in the morning to see how to dress. I'm finding that arm warmers are the best thing this time of year, as I tend to overheat with too many layers on my body, but my arms also get chilly when exposed to the wind. And with how quickly our weather changes here, it's nice to be able to slip them off mid-ride when the temperature picks up. Light layers are also a good option, something that rolls up small enough to stuff into a jersey pocket when you get warm enough to take it off. Switching to full fingered gloves seems to work wonders, too, as once my hands get cold, I'm done! Do whatever works best for you to keep you comfy in the ever changing fall weather.
Hope to see you Saturday, and we roll out at 9:30am. Here's the route:
