Didn't get enough of a work out to even get stiff hands :(
Started out puttering around like a grannie and was like WTF dude suck it up then got some speed up - and then the wind died :lol: should have broken out the PowerBlast but I was #@%$#!ing out at the wind ... thought it was stronger than I could handle. Turned out it wasn't even enough to ride.

My kite instincts need rebooting after winter :lol:

Much more fun tonight - I stayed out riding till my fingers were so cold they ached like a mofo for about 20 minutes after I got into my warm car :wee:
