Not a bad way to wrap up another week of commuting. Finished about three minutes slower than my previous best, but I did that best last night! Legs are definitely sore this evening and I’m sure tomorrow will be even worse. Looking forward to car pooling with the little darling…

Felt great this morning and the time shows. My fastest ride to work yet. Averaged 18.6 MPH (29.9 KPH) and beat my previous best by 1:40. It felt like I hit all the green lights today so that may have had something to do with it. Either way felt amazing.…
I met a former co-worker and friend for some lunch at Chipotle and decided I needed to punish myself for such a splurge. Also realized that the wind was relatively still so I decided to really push myself tonight. It seems to have paid off as this was my fastest…
Not quite my fasted but it sure felt like I was flying. Have to say it did feel almost a little chilly this morning once I started rolling. Had to have the jersey all zipped up for the majority of the ride. Really looking forward to cooler temperatures in the…
What I wouldn’t do for a 12 MPH wind out of the North! Another tough one this afternoon with the wind. Really makes the uphill slog along Pecos a chore. Oh well you take what you can get. At least no rain today! Clear, 98°F, Feels like 98°F, Humidity 9%,…

Drizzle? Seriously? Maybe when I left UNLV, but by the time I reached Coronado Center Drive it was a full on deluge. I’m talking cats and dogs out there. The wind got so bad I moved to the opposite side of the road to use the homes as a wind…
I tried to take it easy this morning as I’m feeling pretty sore from so much riding. Was slower than my all time average and a huge drop compared to the personal best I’d set on Thursday, 9/17, being a full four minutes slower. Still loving ever minute of every…
They’re all just spokes on a wheel. This one’s on top, then that one’s on top, and on and on it spins, crushing those on the ground. (Ride there) Beautiful morning for a ride. Surprised to see so many PRs before St Rose. After I turned onto St Rose I…
You may be looking at the map and wondering, “Why isn’t this tagged or named as a commute?” I decided to give my regular commute route a rip on the road bike. I wanted to get an idea of the differences in the two bikes, and boy is there. The…
