I enjoyed this one a lot! Looking forward to participate again in coming years.

Looks like I've been following a pretty simple life philosophy recently: when unsure what to do next - just go for a bike ride! πŸ˜†
βœ… Enjoyed another 60K and got 12 Strava Segment PRs along the way! 🚴πŸ₯‡

It's a great way to clear your mind from work and other daily routine! ☯️

β˜€οΈ It's getting really hot outside. The 🌑️35Β°C heat, however, wasn't enough to stop me from going for a bike ride! 😎 This time - a rather high intensity 70K ride (more of a workout than a stroll) along the W&OD Trail with a short break at the Luck Stone Quarry Overlook.
