Incomplete data because I didn't start my computer until a couple miles in, doh. I'm pretty sure my speed for those first few miles was reasonably over my average, which suggests I'm getting faster on this route, which is cool, especially since it was colder out than any other time I've done this ride, and windier, too. Plus I've been on a pretty tight calorie restriction so I thought I'd have much less energy. And finally it's been more than a week since I've ridden, since the weather hasn't been obliging. With all of that, still seeing an improvement is super encouraging!
