After a while I began to be aware of lack of wind in the face when riding means a tail wind, don't be fooled into thinking I have an extra ten miles in me.

Nice ride. How much altitude? It would be intersting to split your avg speed: out and back, see how much the wind affected you.

O.K. here is a try. 16 miles is the turn around. Total Ascent 1.39 miles. Total Descent 1.40 Miles. Min Alt 176 Ft, Max Altitude 521 Ft.
