Comments, Ken Bonner:
I experienced pea-soup fog for the 1st 7 hours, then a gradual
clearing and by 1:00 pm, sunny skies. I nearly ended up in the
ditch a couple of times when I was riding a road without a centre
or fog lines.

Finished another one!
Peninsula 300k, Permanent 32, has 10,000 feet/3050 metres of
total elevation gain
Today was similar to Monday, cool ( 2C) until about 9 am, then
for a brief time when the sun came out, it went to 11C. The sun
filtering through the trees and shining on the placid lake in
the Highlands was very pretty (when I took the time to look
that stretch of the about 35k has approximately 2300 feet of climbing
on nice smooth pavement
it is part of the EdH 300, the
VanIsle 1200 and the Tsunami 300.
The wind appeared to come from all directions. Often, on the
Peninsula, when this happens, it seems like a tail-wind from all
directions. Today was not one of those days!
Looks like it might not be good cycling weather for a few days
time for recovery, training runs and house chores
in that order (but dont tell Margot!)
