So close to breaking the big 50. This was much better than last week. Avoided the always busy Stephanie by taking a side street over to Warm Springs. Also made sure to take it easier along RMT to not burn myself out during the climbs. Unfortunately coming towards Lake Meade…

It’s so funny how Bandok seems to come up with the perfect names for my rides. I decided to take a ride outside my normal box today and take on a few extra miles. I was really out there busting my butt and as I go later into the ride…
Not sure if it was the wind or that I packed two rides in so close together, but I was just not feeling it this afternoon. I just felt so slow and tired for almost the entire ride. Then again looking at the overall time it isn’t really all that…
Got a late start to this absolutely beautiful day for a ride. Still happy to report that I made myself hit the trail and put in some decent segments to boot. Hoping to get out tomorrow before the winds kick up and make riding a nightmare.
After watching UNLV’s mens basketball team give it their all against San Diego State University I made some time for a quick ride. Looking at the stats I’m surprised to see how fast I was considering I’d done a ride the day before. Maybe more performance out of the bike…
I’m usually not one to shill for one company or another but McGhie’s in Henderson did an amazing job with my bike. I mentioned that I dumped it last weekend trying to avoid smashing into a kid walking along the Union Pacific Railroad Trail. My rear derailleur started acting up…
Three rides in three days!? What in the world? Had Monday off so decided to put the free time to good use and put in a few more miles. I must be doing something right because I weighed in this morning and I’m down to 218.3. This is the lightest…
Almost killed a kid tonight. Not really, but it was a close call. Was getting ready to fly across Paradise Hills Drive and didn’t see the family coming my direction. I came around the left and the youngest was right in front of me. It was getting late, around dusk,…
I use Bandok.com to automatically generate my ride names and this one feels so appropriate. Throughout much of the day I’d been in a sour mood with a dark cloud hovering over my head. Sure there were bright points, like UNLV defeating UNM, but despite that bright point I still…
Yesterday I’d talked about adding a little spur to stretch out yesterday’s ride and I decided to go for it today. Basically this is a culmination of my past routes with new spurs to give it length. Reconfigured my bike computer to show my heart rate and kept targeting 160-162…
