Broke out the old iron for my first Fall rainy day ride.

Catalpa tree turning color Autumn is in progress here. Today was nice - 70° and sunny. |
Magnificent day here. 25 miles. First time on road since 10/4. Hit a couple of PRs into a headwind. Passed a couple of serious bikers (at least they put serious $ into their bikes and jerseys) - I don't remember the last time I passed a real cyclist who wasn't stopped. :) 46 miles to beat last year's mileage, unless I decide to use my trainer 'miles' in my total (in which case I've beaten last year already.

Yesterday, another magnificent day. 25 miles, which brings this year's total to 1,303, 2 more than last year. I'm very happy to beat last year's mileage, especially on such a beautiful day.

25 miles today. Sunny and 83 degrees.

Yes
Managed to get in 15 miles today. I have not been able to ride for a while, so I didn't want to overdo it. I'll be riding pretty much every day, unless it rains, for the next month. I hope to be back up to 40-50 miles shortly.

Thickly housed residential area of Yokohama.
And Japan's symbol No.1, Mt Fuji, Fuji-San. Hmmm, very Japanese sight. The snowcap is still small, but it'll be bigger and Mt Fuji'll be more beautiful. Eddy Merckx corsa extra Molteni orange + DA 25th anniversary set https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/bikefor...5bbad6ad1.jpeg |
Another local ride yesterday. Too lazy to drive to someplace with hills so I ditched the CF superbike and cruised the steelie.

Soaking up this bit of Indian Summer.

28 miles in 45* weather which started out as a light drizzle which turned into steady rain after 15 minutes. Even though I was fairly well equipped, I didn’t wear my heavy duty rain gear and returned home with wet hands and feet - and of course legs. At 67 riding in the rain is not my idea of a macho good time like in my 30s.

Freezing here in the Bay so needed some protection in the mountains. MTB ride it was this morning:

70 degrees in November! Group ride to the Old Field Lighthouse on the north shore of Long Island. Slow pace but a very nice group!

Unusually warm upper 60s here in southern Maine today. started with a 2 1/2 mile walk on the beach with the wife and the dog this morning. and then I plan on doing about 40 on the bike but managed to stretch it to 50.5 miles.
https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/bikefor...c352cc02f.jpegabout 1700 feet of climbing. I felt about as tired as this old barn looks when I was done. |
Autumn has come to Yokohama, too:)
good weather and temp, 20C or 68F. 30km or 20 miles rec ride. at the return point park. It's so nice to ride:love: https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/bikefor...946a39cc6.jpeg |
From earlier this week.
Finding motivation to ride……it’s 80 degrees so jumped on the bike after walking 18 holes this morning. Doing a local brewery tour. At Mile 30 a Spaten Lager at Old Armour in Kannapolis. Mile 37 a Blonde Ale at Pharr Mill Brewing in concord. Stopped at Southern Strain in Concord but they’re closed……Last stop a Vienna Lager at Cabarrus Brewing in Concord. They no longer brew their Cabarrus Brown???? I hit Full Moon Oyster Bar on the way home for their vanilla Porter, actually had 2…..oysters were 1/2 price!! 5 beers the last 20 miles. You might need to be an experienced (and thirsty) rider to pull this off…. https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/bikefor...75d3a9e21.jpeg https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/bikefor...cd0f142d7.jpeg https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/bikefor...26f7b8110.jpeg https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/bikefor...2d4d2bde5.jpeg |
From today. I’ve been distracted from riding since June with moving from our house we’ve been in for 30 years. Riding time and miles have suffered. Rode about 60 miles today. Stopped midway for a hot dog. Biggest hot dog I’ve ever eaten. Washed down with a Cheerwine…..a local soft drink started in Salisbury, NC, just a few miles away. Think cherry coke…..
Wind was tough coming back home. Nice car show in Kannapolis.Helicopters on display at local Brewery which provides proceeds to support Veterans. https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/bikefor...aa7217919.jpeg https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/bikefor...ca892734d.jpeg https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/bikefor...54cef4276.jpeg https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/bikefor...0c9b5dec0.jpeg https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/bikefor...d58144c33.jpeg https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/bikefor...87a39bd60.jpeg https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/bikefor...882afc350.jpeg |

40 miles in low 40s. Got back at sunset and man was the temp dropping. Just can’t get over how low the sky the sun is during the day. Wish my helmet had a visor. A pic of the Cascade Range in the distance.
