How can you call it a bike club picnic if you don’t bike with the club to the picnic? đŸ¤” I was reminded yesterday that there was a GVC picnic planned for today and had a few people ask if I was going. I hemmed and hawed thinking about it…

Wwwhhhaaattt?!? A Sunday ride? What is going on?! Mark Hyken hit me up on Saturday about the GVC Breakfast Ride and saying it would be a recovery ride. Well figures Joy would show up and toss the idea of a recovery ride right out the window. Being it was a…
Certainly wasn’t feeling it today. Legs are still pretty tired from Saturday. Each time I’d try to put down some power, I’d get two maybe three strokes and my quads would feel exhausted and burning. Like they were full of lactate near instantly. This was pretty much the norm for…
I really need to stop having zero weeks. Zero weeks are the work weeks in which I don’t commute at least once. This week had nothing but bad weather in the form of big winds which put a damper on things. Saturday’s Adobo Velo ride was canceled due to forecasted…
Happy to have finally had the opportunity to do this ride! Last time one of the local groups did this ride I was out of town and had to miss it. Got an early start to the morning and rolled down to Black Bear Diner on Las Vegas Blvd for…

Having three days off the bike left me itching for some mileage. I also didn’t want to ride solo and, as luck would have it, GVC was riding out to Blue Diamond for a coffee run. I figured I’d ride down to the start, do the ride, and then some…
What a gorgeous day for a ride considering we’re knocking on December’s door. Late yesterday was the first time my legs have felt up to doing anything after my recovery ride on Friday. My legs have been an absolute wreck since Friday afternoon. Hamstrings all tied up in knots, quads…
Getting today’s ride done was only made possible by teamwork. I have to be honest, as I started down Horizon Ridge this morning I started having doubts about this ride. Just something nagging at the back of my head that I should reconsider. The miles will be too many. The…
Two rides in one weekend!?! What is going on?? I went into yesterday’s ride thinking it would be a slow noodle down to Jean and back. With that in mind I’d already planned on doing this Sunday ride. Worked it out with the little darling that I’d ride with GVC…
