Chilly and brisk morning for a ride. Knowing stronger winds are forecast for this evening I rode in anyway. Those evening winds will be out of the NNE which should give me a nice push home. Keeping my fingers crossed. The worst part of the wind this morning was the…

Another nice evening ride home. Got home and was busy with household things. Then sat down to watch the UNLV basketball game with the kiddo. Long way of saying I didn’t get time to hop online and update the details on this ride other than the title, bike, and tagging…
Another beautiful ride in this morning. Still chilly, but the gear is doing its job keeping me warm. Going to need replacement shoe covers sooner than later. Trying to use Castelli road shoe covers with Shimano MTB shoes didn’t work out so well. The hole for the cleats is pretty…
Definitely a cool one on the ride home. Pretty much wore exactly what I wore in this morning just to be certain I wouldn’t get cold. I did try to leave without my heavier jacket on, but I didn’t make it out of the parking lot before reconsidering. Ride home…
Pretty chilly one to start the week. Thankfully all my gear really came through and I was able to stay warm for most of the ride. Did have to make a quick stop to put on my arm warmers. I’d left the house hoping I wouldn’t need them, but the…
Not entirely sure where all this energy has come from, but I really poured it on again clocking my 3rd fastest commute home. Similar to my in ride, by the time I got home I was absolutely drenched. It’s funny how if I have a wind breaker/jacket over my arms…
Holy cow just smashed it today. Not my fastest time to work, but definitely top 5 effort. Felt really good leaving the house and decided to push it some. I’m sure I’ll be paying for it later, but feel great right now. Not sure where Klimat and Strava are getting…
Another nice night for a ride home. Weather has been holding out and staying just chilly enough for only arm warmers. The last few miles are certainly cool and borderline too cool. I’m nervous about commuting tomorrow. Can’t really get a straight answer about the weather. Local forecasters are saying…
Alarm went off this morning at 5 am and my first thought was, “Why am I doing this to myself?” Despite that I forced my feet to the floor and climbed into the shower. Once I started moving and waking up I started feeling much better and ready to get…
Nice ride home tonight. Temps were dipping into the upper 50s making it almost too cool for only arm warmers. I ground it out and avoided digging out my jacket along the way home. Tried to take it easy and not blow up my legs like I feel I’ve been…
