Another chilly morning ride. Was pretty quick even though I felt I was taking it easy. Been kinda bummed that I haven’t seen the regulars out and about. There are a few folks who I’m accustomed to seeing along the way, and almost always at the same spot. Shouldn’t be…

Holy cow did the mercury drop fast this evening. When I left the office I was perfectly fine with shorts, jersey and base layer. By the time I was clearing Saint Rose I was hankering for some arm warmers. When I rolled up to the house I couldn’t get inside…
Felt great to be up early and riding in to work this morning. Sure it was a little chilly, recorded low of 44.6°F, but all my gear came together perfectly to keep me comfortable. Looking at my stats, I was slower today than my average and that’s fine. I’m starting…
Not sure how to describe it but today just wasn’t a ride day for me. As I was getting ready I could see the winds picking up. Once I was under way I knew almost straight away that I should just cut the ride short and enjoy an afternoon at…
Not too bad a way to end the week. Felt really good tonight, but definitely fatigued. Looking forward to an off day along with car pooling with the wife after breakfast out in the morning. Anyone have any rides planned this weekend? Nothing really “planned”, but will probably ride on…
Another beautiful morning for a ride. Left the house feeling good, but definitely not record breaking. I’d left thinking I would take it easy as a nice way to round out the week. Even so, after my legs warmed up and I got spinning I still managed to put in…
Nice ride home tonight. Wasn’t really trying to crush it, but then again I don’t think my legs would have allowed me to if I’d wanted. Sunset was again beautiful, but sad that the beauty comes from such destruction. Once I was home and the ride uploaded, I was surprised…
After two days of herculean efforts, I knew within the first five minutes of this morning’s commute that the ride would be a slower one. One of those things that happens after you push so hard on consecutive days. You can’t go full gas on each and every ride after…
Just a whisker slower than yesterday, but still a strong effort. Felt really good and the weather was amazing. Temperatures drop so fast once the sun gets low. Speaking of, the sunset was a gorgeous bright orange tonight. Clear, 89°F, Feels like 89°F, Humidity 7%, Wind 2mph from SE –…
Ever have one of those mornings when you think, “I’m going to crush my ride today?” That was me this morning. Really pushed myself this morning and crushed my previous best ride in. Moving time was over 3 (51:56 vs 54:04) minutes quicker with an average speed nearly a full…
