Got in a good ride yesterday

I was down in Des Moines visiting family. Since the forecast was supposed to be pretty nice I took my bike with me.

It was up close to 60 so I went out for a ride and did some GoPro time lapsing.

Wound up at almost 11.5 miles. Felt damn good too to be out riding.

Time lapse photography always makes me smile. Viewing life from a different perspective.

The weather here has been OK for riding but my usual daily route has been invaded by oil field traffic. For safety sake I've been using a smart trainer with Zwift. It's not the same as real riding but not too bad.
