Notes on the day: Tonight was a great ride. Cool weather for the June 16th and as usually I overdressed for the occasion and sweated my butt off in the beginning but was perfectly dressed for the weather when 8:30pm rolled around.
Felt generally good even on the climb up from New Richmond to 58th street. The long and slow climb felt good up 60th to 136th Ave. Then got into a group of 8 on 60th north of 136th Avenue. I was positioned where I wanted to be but ran out of gas before we reached the first overpass. Very frustrating to run of gas like this on a mere 40 mile ride.
