Ha! That's never happened before!
Okay, maybe once or twice.
And it was actually the weather that changed my mind for me. Not today's weather mind you, but Saturday's predicted weather. You see they're promising cold and rain for my planned 150 kms, and so I decided to move it up to tomorrow. That of course meant that I couldn't do my little test today. I'm okay with that, because I know that the most important workouts I still have left are the 4 long rides. I would just as soon not be doing them in the basement.
Tomorrow's weather should be quite favourable for a ride, but with a very unusual NE wind. That calls for some extra planning. I just don't have real good loop options for that direction, and I can't carry enough water to do the whole thing as an out and back. I'll probably have to come back to the mailbox at least once. We'll see how it goes.
And today I learned from my counsellor friend that instead of focusing on more positive endings to the stories I write in my head, I should simply learn to accept that sometimes stories just go on. Who says they end? ....hmmm.....

Endings can be overrated!
