Another commute followed by a spicy Tuesday night Adobo ride. For the commute portion of today’s ride I decided to start adding in some Wandrer miles like I used to do in the past. It’s funny that when I do this I find all sorts of interesting ways to get…

Cycling commutes
A solid Monday’s worth of riding if I do say so myself. I hit some of my favorite stretches of road hard and was feeling good until I hit something big on Pecos just south of Pittman Wash. It was another case of hitting something large enough that I was…
Thank you Mother Nature for the KOM assist couldn’t have done it without it. Not much to write about regarding this uneventful breakfast commute. It is the first breakfast commute in quite a while. When the spring semester started the goal was to commute on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays; however,…
Someone invited the younguns and all hell broke loose. There isn’t really anything interesting to report on regarding the commute portion of today’s ride. The Tuesday Night part though, oh howdy. As I arrived at PTs, and after putting my backpack away in the truck, I was surprised to see…
The kiddo has been having difficulties with the HVAC blower motor on her car for a few months so it was finally time to get it into the shop to be taken care of. Also arranged for the 120K mile scheduled maintenance while it was in. Honestly, I’m glad that…
I’m a little far removed from this one as I write this nearly two weeks later. From what I recall it was a solid ride both to and from the office. New bike fund: $87.20 (+$0.00), €1.52 (+€0.00), ₱10.00 (+₱0.00), ֏10.00 (+֏0.00)351 total shifts, 30 front, 321 rear. 77.0% of…
First day I was able to both start and end the ride in shorts! I still had to don arm warmers for the ride to work however. Today was the second Tuesday using the slightly modified route to and from work and it is working well. The only portion I’m…
Finally back on the bike after no riding over the weekend. I had a family trip down to Rancho Cucamonga and due to family event scheduling I couldn’t get in a beach ride. Certainly a bummer, but also not the end of the world either. I was feeling rather good…
Ahh another Tuesday, another commute, another LVAV Tuesday night pain fest. I don’t know what I was thinking commuting and doing the Tuesday night ride after yesterday’s century ride. The legs were feeling relatively garbage for the ride to work in the morning, but felt better at the end of…
Second week of commuting followed by a Adobo Velo sufferfest. Despite everyone being “tired” from Saturday’s double century, the ride was spicy. The ride to work was pretty uneventful. It was a little chilly and I had a difficult time warming up which I attribute to the fact the route…
