Nyon-Aubonne and Back

So, after my 22 kms of hiking in Zermatt last weekend I discovered that cycling does not condition the legs for hard walking. My quads and calves were so sore on Monday and Tuesday.

I rode the 10k to the office on Tuesday morning on the Cannondale Bad Boy. I would have done ten more on the way home from the office, but I got a slow leak. Must have been a spine from a horsechestnut husk. But that's all fixed.

So, today I did 36 kms roundtrip from Nyon to Aubonne. Good stiff north wind (called the "bises" [beeze]) going out. Wind at your back is always fun (average 36kph on the way back.

Total for the week 46kms. Fewer than I hoped for.
