Hopping on the Lifetime Friday pain train is always a great way to wrap up the work week. Sure it sucks while you’re in it, but once you push through to the other side you look back and get a sense of accomplishment. Going to miss these rides when they…

Another wonderful ride home from work this evening. Really loving the falling temperatures. Trying to continue the trend of taking it easier during these commutes. The higher volume weekends have really taken their toll and the body is letting me know in pretty obvious ways. Hard to slow down and…
Lovely chill ride in this morning. Rolling away from the house it felt a little chillier than usual. Got me thinking that it won’t be long before I’m back in wool base layers and long sleeve jerseys freezing my tail off. Sunny-Sunny, 76°F-76°F, Feels like 71°F-71°F, Humidity 17%-15%, Wind SSW…
Nice, easy, and chill ride home to end the day. Amazing what a few degrees in lower temperatures and no wind will make. Caught myself thinking, “Is that fall I’m feeling?” numerous times along the way home. Looking forward to the cooler temperatures. Sunny-Sunny, 101°F-102°F, Feels like 94°F-95°F, Humidity 6%-7%,…

Don’t know what I was thinking agreeing to ride out to Callville Bay with the GVC crew this morning after yesterday’s ride. Was up late last night watching the UNLV football game with the kiddo. Then decided to get started a little earlier to ride over to Anthem Hills Park…
Wow just wow. Totally awesome ride today. Started super early by meeting my boy Mark over at Anthem Hills Park. From there we noodled over to Mountains Edge Park to join up with the Adobo Velo crew. Nice way to get the blood flowing and the legs loosened up. First…
Left work early to swing by Swanny‘s to take their only 32mm Gatorskin. The boys were nice enough to swap out the rear real quick. The old tire had a small hole in the sidewall that the boys had put an internal patch on that’s been holding a treat but…
Gotta say this Lifetime Friday thing is starting to grow on me. Sure I have to get up more than an hour earlier than usual. Sure it’s a lot of climbing and getting my legs shredded trying to keep up. But be damned if the Southwest Scramble afterwards at Scrambled…
lol “Longest Headwind: 1h 28m” on a ride that was 1h 34m long. Sounds about right. Will be feeling this one in the morning. Mostly sunny-Mostly sunny, 104°F-107°F, Feels like 101°F-103°F, Humidity 15%-12%, Wind N 0mph-SSE 9mph – by Klimat.app — Windsock Report — Weather Impact: 3.5% Headwind: 95% @…
