I still needed some miles in order to complete this year’s Rapha 500 challenge, and last night I remembered that Robert usually does a ride on Tuesday mornings. After a brief text exchange I figured I’d give it a go. With the ride scheduled to start at 6:00 it would…
Month: December 2024
When Boots asks if you want to ride, you say yes. If I’m being totally honest, if she hadn’t asked me to ride I would have remained at home all day glued to the couch. In typical fashion though I never regret going out once it’s all said and done.…
Another great day for a ride considering it’s the end of December. I started the morning with leg warmers and arm warmers under my thermal jersey. Ended the day missing both. Yeah it was that nice. Picked up Boots at the usual spot and made for Pebble Marketplace. As we…
Oof chilly start to the day. It felt like one of the coolest days of the year to date. Nice ride down to breakfast and I got to hang out with Moose before continuing on to work. Pretty chill day at the office. Then to cap things off a nice…

Nice quick ride down the hill to my regular Friday breakfast spot. Was joined by Moose which was a welcome addition after a week’s absence. Riding along St. Rose approaching the 215 on ramp I spotted a coin in the gore area and turned around to nab it. Went back…
Back at the commute game after an extended absence. Last week was the final week of the fall semester. The end of an academic semester is a busy time for me under normal circumstances, but taking MBA classes effectively doubles the amount of work which needs to be attended to.…
Finally back on the bike after taking much of the week off. This past week was finals week at being in and employed by school makes for double the amount of work as usual. I had both final exams and student employee reviews to tackle. Honestly, it was probably for…
