Ride to NSBSS

This was a ride to work filling a 12-hour shift, followed with a 90 min workout in the fitness center and a ride home in the morning and thus there are separate stats.

The ride to work was a rush to be on time taking approximately 70 mins. averaging 16.3 mph and an avg HR of 155 bpm and a max of 163 bpm. Avg cadence of 81; max 105. Also had to ride an extra 3 miles to keep off of US20 from Delta westward to County Rd 9.

The ride home was difficult due to the fog condensing upon my glasses and the probable fatigue from the long night. It took about the same time; 69 mins. averaging a faster 16.6 mph and a slower avg HR of 146 bpm and the same max of 163 bpm. Avg cadence of 80; max 99.

Interestingly, the ride out was primarily within a HR Zone 4; the ride home while within less time was primarily within HR Zone 3. Why?

Weather Conditions: 1732 and 0846 hours. Little to no wind during the ride out to Northstar or during the return home which was foggy.
Min: 62ºF Max: 78ºF
