Beautiful weather for the ride down to Scrambled for breakfast and on to work. Kiddo came by the office after school and we went out to lunch. Afterwards she decided to hang out with me while I went about getting my labs ready for the new semester. Was nice to…

Cycling commutes
Nice day for a commute. Temps this morning were great, but winds in the afternoon were challenging. Was at the office just getting started on changing into riding gear when my cell rings. It’s the kiddo, “Hey Dad do you need me to come get you?” “I don’t think so,…
Another Monday, another commute. Nothing to terribly exciting today. That’s probably a good thing actually. Did have nice driver interaction this afternoon. I was traveling west along Reunion getting ready for my left turn onto Cadence St. I did a couple should checks and slowed up to allow a white…
I’m one to always tout how awesome it is to commute to work. Refreshing wake-me-up rides in. Lovely end of day rides home. Blah blah blah. But things aren’t always rainbows, unicorns, glitter, descents, tail winds, and smooth asphalt. Is there anything worse than walking up to your car to…
An odd sort of ride today, guess it matches the odd sort of week I’m having. With appointments yesterday and Friday, I’m riding on Tuesday and Thursday this week. On the ride in I felt I had difficulty keeping my heart rate in Zone 2. I’d start putting some power…

Sadly, just another tame commute loop. The legs are feeling a little sore today but that’s to be expected considering the miles I’m putting in. Did have a hair raising moment when I got to campus. Was going around a corner and my front tire caught one of the separation…
Another great day of commuting. The morning ride in was pretty nice. Temps weren’t too terrible, but the humidity was still elevated. I’ll take it though. Snapped a couple pics along the way. Nice pic of my partner (my shadow) and couple good pics of the Welcome to Las Vegas…
The morning ride in was absolutely gorgeous. Temps were great, but the humidity made it a little sticky and was kinda damp when I rolled into Scrambled for breakfast. I set off a little later than last week because I ended up sitting for 15 minutes waiting for Scrambled to…
Not sure if the Cycling Gods are happy or angry with me. I rode in without mounting my fenders in case of rain. It did rain all along my route, but before I left the office. Then the rain held off for my entire ride home. So that’s good? Then…
