I haven't ridden anywhere near as much as I had hoped for the last 6 weeks and I really paid for it after the rest stop at 49mi today. My legs just felt like jello and I ended up losing 0.6mph in that last stretch. There was more climbing in the first 7.5 miles than what I have in my 30 mile loop (which I've only ridden once this year). The temp ranged from 64°F at the start to reading 95°F at the finish, though it was probably just 89-90°F. HRM zones 3-5 3:05 though it was a little flaky right after that second rest stop and was reading in the 90s-low 110s for a while when I'm sure it was in the 140-150s. 64.7mi in 4:52:01 for an avg of 13.28mph, max grade 9.6% (even worse than the Lancaster County Covered Bridge Metric from 2012 where max grade was 7.8%, though that had 1200+ more feet of climbing than this one in total).
