After breakfast we checked out, loaded the car and drove a bit out of town. We parked near the Cathedral Winery because we planned on going for a bike ride on the back country roads. We got out of the car and it was sunny, the air was super chilly, and the wind was pretty strong. We decided to head back to Portland instead and ride there.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/bikeride1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-16475\" title=\"bikeride1\" src=\"http:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/bikeride1-e1303144341647-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/bikeride1-e1303144341647-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/bikeride1-e1303144341647.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nWe parked near the Springwater Corridor (the 40 mile loop through town) and got on the bikes. I wanted to ride East a little bit to make the ride longer. We biked East on the trail for a few miles but we were eating a headwind the entire time. At first I was worried: I thought, &#8220;Oh my gosh I am in BAD shape&#8221; but the wind was pretty strong.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/springwater.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-16476\" title=\"springwater\" src=\"http:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/springwater-e1303144569569-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/springwater-e1303144569569-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/springwater-e1303144569569.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nIt was such a gorgeous day in Portland! And much warmer than it was in Hood River. Riding East we were clocking about 12 mph on the bike. Once we turned around and headed West we were at 16 mph. It was much easier heading in that direction.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/ride1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-16477\" title=\"ride1\" src=\"http:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/ride1-e1303144700644-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/ride1-e1303144700644-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/ride1-e1303144700644.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nIt was such a wonderfully sunny day. It&#8217;s amazing how much my mood improves with a little Vitamin D. It was the first ride outside since last Fall. I was so glad to be back on the bike, and not inside on the bike trainer. We both have a LONG way to go before we&#8217;ll be ready for the Portland Century.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/ride2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-16478\" title=\"ride2\" src=\"http:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/ride2-e1303144853183-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/ride2-e1303144853183-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/ride2-e1303144853183.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nWe rode down the trail towards Sellwood and ended up stopping at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pizzicatogourmetpizza.com\/\">Pizzicato<\/a> for lunch.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Stats for the first part of the ride:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Time: 49 minutes<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Calories Burned: 316<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/caloriesbike.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-16480\" title=\"caloriesbike\" src=\"http:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/caloriesbike-e1303145065548-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/caloriesbike-e1303145065548-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/caloriesbike-e1303145065548.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nI got a slice of the Puttanesca pizza&#8211;basically a Greek pizza with feta, kalamata olives, artichoke hearts and tomatoes.

I estimated my breakfast calories, added the slice (280 calories) plus the calories I burned riding. My knee was bugging me this weekend. I have no idea why but I&#8217;m trying not to stress about it just yet.<\/p>\n<p>After we were done eating we rode back to the car.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/ridebackcalories.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-16482\" title=\"ridebackcalories\" src=\"http:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/ridebackcalories-e1303145437987-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/ridebackcalories-e1303145437987-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/ridebackcalories-e1303145437987.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<strong>Stats:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Time: 18<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Calories Burned: 95<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The ride back to the car was short and fast.

I do think it will be somewhat slow getting back the bike fitness I lost this winter though.<\/p>\n<p>We got home, unpacked and spent the rest of the day doing stuff around the house.
