From Northfield Rd., Bethesda, MD, to 13th & C St. SW, Washington, D.C. I started slowly but picked-up speed. On the CCT, it was busy. The nice weather yesterday continued this morning. I did get passed just before the River Rd. overpass and as we weaved through other cyclists and pedestrians, I lost contact. I kept pace with the rider, only 30m ahead for a long way but lost him on the flats. My rear light fell off at one point so I had to stop, back up and retrieve it. As I was getting my speed back up, another rider passed me but I kept pace behind him into Georgetown. Along the water I had good tailwinds but the wind wasn't evident in the willow trees there (?). I felt that I've been getting stronger overall.
Bicycling (Commute) 44:00 [3] 11.9 mi (3:42 / mi)
From 13th & C St. SW, Washington, D.C., to Northfield Rd., Bethesda, MD. Like the day before, I had traffic and headwinds getting to Georgetown. After that the wind wasn't bad. Inside the last mile, I caught one of my neighbors so I rode the last part slowly with him.
