This ride was hatched after having a chat with Joy about hosting a final ride for Anna before she heads back to New York. After some back and forth I drew up a route and made the event on the Adobo Velo Facebook page. Decided on some Villa Ridge, mini-Villa…

Finding a quarter within the first mile of a ride is always a good thing! Got a text Friday morning from Joy asking if I was riding this weekend. A ride hadn’t been posted to the Adobo Velo Facebook group yet and I suspect it was because the annual Christmas…

Back on the Wandrer train and adding more miles to my commutes. I was pleasantly surprised with the stretch of Patrick between the Beltway and Decatur. It was a fun section to fly down with it having a slight downhill and smooth asphalt. Sure there were a couple rough sections…
Not quite the way I had thought I would do it, but I’ll take what I can get. Officially crossed over 10,000 miles for the year with this ride. I believe I was on pace to make 12K this year, but a few weeks of “real life” interfered with riding.…
During the Pedal & Pour Friendsgiving ride I was chatting with Jeans McGee, aka Dave Burns, and he’d mentioned that we were really close to the gun range. Since that conversation the gun range ride was in my mind. I sent a text over to Robert about it and he…

I want to start by saying that this ride’s title was automatically generated, and I didn’t take a spill on this ride. Unfortunately, that can’t be said for everyone. Robert had posted this ride a few weeks back and had to reschedule it due to other group rides happening in…
It’s been so long since I’ve split my commute into two separate rides. Sitting down trying to write this out I totally remember why I started combining them into one post. Not enough to really write about when they are separated. I kinda feel like I bit off a little…
Perfect example of why you don’t adjust the settings on your ride computer in the middle of a ride. Stupid me hit the “Save” button and here you are! Another example of, “Don’t touch it you’ll break it.” Anyway, went east this morning to avoid the debacle around the track…
