Was looking to stretch my ride out to 40 miles and was successful. Added a couple extra loops to make it the 40. There is one more spur that I could add to stretch this just a smidge more. Might look at doing that next week, this one took a…

Think this is my new go to route. Need to tweak it just a little bit to get over the 40 mile mark. For one reason or another didn’t quite go as hard as yesterday and my heart rate wasn’t in zone 4 as much either. Oh well still burned…
Wanted to mix it up a little today and do something a little different. I started near Warm Springs and the 215 in order to catch the beginning of the 215 Beltway Trail. Stuck with the 215 Beltway Trail all the way around to hook into the Union Pacific Railroad…
Can’t believe how nice it was this afternoon. Was looking forward to today since the news had been saying it was going to be nice. Nice to see several others taking advantage of the nice weather as well.

First ride with new Garmin computer and various sensors. Also trying out new wool socks and winter gloves. Think I need to get some shoe covers because my feet were still frozen at the end. Felt good though and proud of myself for actually getting out there and putting down…
Nothing much to say other than just another 33.5 miles under my belt. Was nice today, not too cool. Actually got dangerously warm climbing the hill after my turn around.
Once again was making excuses to not go out. It’s too cold. It’s too windy. So I went down to REI to get a riding jacket and picked up a base layer while I was there. On the way home realized, “Hey the wind has stopped.” So figured no better…
I was just looking for a reason to not do a ride today. It’s to windy. It’s to cold. It might rain. Despite all this I just decided to tough it out and go ride. Happy that I did. Added a little flyby of Nevada State College for the fun…
The Thanksgiving holiday and its associated travels mandated a couple weekends off. Been looking forward to getting back on my bike all week. Felt amazing to be back in the saddle even if the ride whooped my butt. Get to ride again tomorrow, but have to take next weekend off…
