A few observations...

Davison Lake: yep, still icy.
  1. I officially hate this "spring" weather. Yesterday's ride started at 48ºF, bottomed out at 37ºF (complete with snow flurries!), and ended at 54ºF. And today? Rain. Cold, icy rain.
  2. Do not ride Baldwin Road, at least until it gets graded again. It's like riding a washboard, and not in that fun rumble strip way.
  3. The altitude readings on my Edge 500 are wrong. It uses a barometer, which is next to useless if something funky happens with the weather while you're riding (see #1). From now on I will be utilizing Garmin's "elevation correction" feature, which is supposedly more accurate because it cross references your horizontal position with known, accurate data from surveys.

Mmmmm...mud.
