Made the conscious effort to dial it back this morning. Still made it to work in under an hour which is still a pretty good clip. It’s hard to explain, but there are different levels and types of enjoyment between a slower ride like today and a fast ride like…

Another evening ride home fighting a head wind. Thankfully the big thunderstorms the news was talking about this morning never materialized. Had they I’m sure I would have been fighting even stiffer outflow winds. Looking forward to a nice relaxing evening. Mostly sunny-Mostly sunny, 104°F-104°F, Feels like 102°F-102°F, Humidity 17%-17%,…
Really need to learn to chill out and take it easy on these morning rides in. Two days in a row of record, or nearly record, setting pace. I get rolling and the desire to push comes over me. Maybe tomorrow. Ran into my boy Kenny today who I haven’t…
Another breezy trip home. The wind just has a way of really taking it out of you. Felt pretty good on the entire ride. Changed it up a little and left my backpack at the office and only brought home the essentials. Felt weird to be riding/commuting with so little…
Wow that was a quick one today. Just over a minute faster (moving time) and nearly a half a mile per hour faster average than my previous best. Feeling good and fresh all things considered. Hopefully that’ll continue through this evening’s commute home. Sunny-Sunny, 89°F-85°F, Feels like 84°F-80°F, Humidity 14%-16%,…
Great ride out this morning with the Lifetime B Group. Having two days off the bike left me raring to go. Good time, nicely organized, and a steady pace. Afterwards I feel today could have been an A group attempt, but would probably not have enjoyed myself nearly as much…
Thank heaven that one is in the books. Nice exercise in bike handling. Had a couple good gusts that made me tighten my grip and pay attention. Wind was pretty brutal and just sapped the power out of me. Another week of commuting in the books! Now for a couple…
Tied my all time fastest commute in today. Think the tail wind, green lights, and drafting traffic along Pecos contributed more than anything else. Nice way to finish up the week. Mostly sunny-Mostly sunny, 90°F-91°F, Feels like 86°F-86°F, Humidity 20%-15%, Wind WNW 3mph-SW 4mph – by Klimat.app — myWindsock Report…
Another hot one, but still feeling good. Felt really strong on this ride home and wasn’t too surprised to see I almost beat my previous best. Was surprised to see that my final two laps were the fastest I’ve logged. Pulled up to the intersection of Sandy Ridge and Horizon…
Another beautiful morning ride into the office. Nice and steady without anything crazy happening. Now back to work.
