Solo ride

It was a sunny, breezy day, with the wind from the north. I headed up Hwy 9 and Glen Arbor to Boulder Creek, then Hwy 236 and Jamison Creek. I started up Jamison Creek at 1:09. Most of the climb was shielded from the wind, though there was a section with a headwind less than a half a mile from the top, which twisted into a section with a tailwind for a short while. At the very top, it was windy again. I got to the top just before 1:35 for a climb time of about 25:20 and headed back down Empire Grade.
