Funny story on the way into the office this morning. I was riding along Reno around Haven, and I looked over to see a metro motorcycle office sitting in a parking lot driveway. He brings up his radar/laser and starts tagging, what I assume, is a car behind me. I…

During this weekend’s group ride, someone mentioned that summer was over. Well I hate to break it to everyone, but that was a lie! Temps are forecast to flirt with triple digits later this week and into the weekend, Solid rides today. Woke up this morning with tired legs. I…
You know summer is nearly over when Lifetime Fridays are nearing an end. Mindy shared this morning that next week would be the last until next year. Despite these rides being tough at times I’m certainly going to miss them. If you don’t push yourself to go faster, you’ll never…
Couldn’t have asked for better weather. Nearly prefect on for both trips. I seriously hope that it sticks around for a while. It would be terribly disappointing to go from summer straight to winter without any sense of a fall. New bike fund: $70.16 (+$0.02)315 vehicles @ 8.2 per mile,…
Oof another hard Lifetime ride. As much as I complain about how hard these rides are I know in the back of my mind that they’re making me better. Not sure if we went harder because Mindy wasn’t around to keep us in check or I’m just feeling it more…
Another day, another dollar. Still taking things nice and easy while the legs continue to recover. Certainly feeling a little better today. Hoping I’ll be recovered enough for a spin with the Lifetime gang come Friday. New bike fund: $61.38 (+$0.00)332 vehicles @ 8.3 per mile, 2.3 per minute, Speeds:…
And we’re right back into the grind. Gotta get some more miles in before having the next week off. Still feeling super stiff and sore, but thankfully I have the sense to take it easy. New bike fund: $61.38 (+$0.00)420 vehicles @ 10.5 per mile, 2.6 per minute, Speeds: 36.5…
What is it with guys named “Tony” and their ability to get two flats on a single ride? I’d only heard about Tony Green, but witnessed it first hand this morning with Abe Froman {Enve} Chicago sausage King. Then we had two newbies join from the gym and at some…
Felt like garbage this morning. Most likely due to not going to bed until after 11 last night. Thankfully I felt better for the ride home, but the winds certainly didn’t make things easy. Best part of the ride was the random Westerwiener spotting. Was cursing along Pecos when I…
Ride in was great. I felt really good on the two hard segments, but I’m kinda bummed about the section after Sunset. I was cruising along at a good clip and feeling great but the left two lanes were closed and everyone collectively lost their minds. Everyone forgot that they…
