Tuesday morning UCSC loop

Due to the recent rain and cold, I hadn't ridden at all in 6 days. It was still cold and overcast, and I was sluggish going up the hill. The campus was busy again due to the return of the students. I felt okay on the descent, but times for the descent were amazingly slow. I didn't notice any significant wind, but the descent took about 3 and half minutes for some reason. I would have expected some extra time on the climb, due to the crosswalks at Steinhart and at the top, but not on the descent.
