Watching the morning news I had some concerns about hitting the road with the wind. I decided to get out and brave it anyway. I don’t regret it. There were a couple spots that were a little sketchy with a cross wind, but overall it wasn’t too bad. Looking forward…

Cycling commutes
The ride home was pretty uneventful until I was nearly hit. Someone in a Toyota sedan nearly rolled through their stop at Etude onto Reunion and right into me. Thankfully I had seen them and had already started moving out of the bike lane and into traffic lanes. Still it…
Not sure where all the speed and power came from, but wow. Best performance on my commute in yet. Almost in under 49 minutes! Felt refreshed and really good this morning. Great way to start wrapping up the week. Let’s hope this kind of power hangs around until this afternoon.…
Felt surprisingly good tonight. Much much better than last night that is for sure. So dang warm. I know this may sound like a weird complaint, but when I leave in the mornings it’s in the mid- to upper- 40s. When I leave the office it’s around 70, and the…
Not entirely sure where all the speed came from this morning. I felt so good on the bike! Amazing what a really good night’s sleep will do for you. Mostly Sunny, 45°F, Feels like 45°F, Humidity 42%, Wind 3mph from WSW – by Klimat.app
Felt like absolute garbage once the elevation started. No legs to speak of. Why can’t my commutes be downhill both ways? Only a couple days left until a day off the bike and then on to the weekend. Rain Showers, 63°F, Feels like 63°F, Humidity 23%, Wind 5mph from ESE…
I slept like garbage last night. Tossed, turned, and woke up every couple hours. When it was time to get up I lay there coming up with excuses to continue laying there: “I put in big miles this weekend.“, “My legs are burnt out.“, “My arms are sore.“, etc. Despite…
Lovely sunset tonight. Lots of red in all directions. Snapped a quick pick at the corner of St Rose and Coronado Center. The ride home was pretty nice, but definitely tired. Was surprised how quickly the temperatures dipped after the sun went down. From the looks of it I can…
Beautiful morning for a ride. Had a difficult time getting warmed up and never really got comfortable temperature wise for the entire ride. Of course after yesterday’s ride the old ticker didn’t want to wake up either with the heart rate staying low for the duration. Hoping for a nice…
8 MPH wind out of the north for my ride home? Yes please! That equates to 17 achievements, including 7 PRs, and a personal best for my evening commute! Bested my previous best time by over a minute and got home feeling ready for more. Such a great way to…
