Thanks!

I did it solo 3 times this morning. I love the challenge.

Allegheny Jet

Today was day 3 of our ride across PA on RT 6. On Saturday we did 84 miles, Sunday 87 miles and today we did 74 miles. The road surface is good with a 4' berm for riding. The road is engineered making the hill gradients smooth and even. On Sat we averaged 18.7, Sunday's ave was 18.2 and today with a nice tail wind my average was 20.3 with 3,700' ft of climbing. Tomorrow is a long day then on Wed we will only ride about 1.5 hours to get to the NY state line. We will leave RT 6 when we get close to Wilkesbarre and stay north of the congested areas in the Pocono's.

Rode for 30 miles on Sunday and 26 today cut short by a flat. Have to walk about 2 miles home and then inspected the tire which was completely worn out. I must have put on over 3K miles since. I'll ride tomorrow my Dahon folder and after the ride, I'll take the tire that was flat and get a replacement.

Yep 29.55 and the humidity was horrible! Last few days I have been dripping with sweat and getting into my eyes and on glasses and it has been hard to see. I have a "Halo" sweat band and it helps but I think it is just too much sweat. Averaged 18.2 though. When it is over I feel good though so all is well in Southern Md.!
Total of 845m for the month, want to get to 1,000m but think I may miss it. Need 50 for the next three days in a row all after work....don't think it is going to happen. Shoud get 900 though easy.

It was a beautiful day for a 30-km commute to work this morning.
Here's a little video clip. I hope it works.

I had a crappy day. I couldn't make it up a 1/2 mile climb of about 10%. I had to stop halfway up because I was seeing fireballs. After a short rest, I continued up, but it sort of ruined my day. Total was 25miles at 15mph. I usually do between 15-16 solo, so all in all it wasn't too bad. Just not much fun.

Late this afternoon I rode 15-ish miles (flat, Ken, :lol) to ride a 10 mi. time trial practice. I'll get the results back tomorrow or Friday. I'm hoping for a sub-30 but have no idea -- had some wind and just kept hammering.

The ride home was almost more painful due to the head/crosswinds howling. I was pretty tired by the time I got home and was really happy to stretch, eat dinner, and relax.

42 miles in all, pancake-flat and full of hard efforts. Whew. I need sleep, now.

rck

Not today but yesterday rode with a couple of friends. 20 miles with a max speed of 49.3mph-what a buzz!

No riding since last Sat. I've been at the beach and since being back home the weather has been rainy. Today, my daughter and I went up on the mountain between showers to pick a quart of wild blueberries.

Red Rider

Succumb to what?

I know you're being humorous but I don't get it in this case. Color me confused.

Red Rider

Note to self: When legs protest, pay attention.

Club ride tonight, 30 miles, headwind for the last 12. About 10 miles in I got gapped, and 28 mph couldn't close it. I dropped back to about 24 and TT'd to the first regroup, maybe 5 miles. After that another not-so-fast-but-consistent rider and I traded pulls for a few flat miles, then I headed for home. This pairing was a blessing as we both needed recovery and we made it so.

Even when I fail at my mission I enjoy these rides. There's so much to be gained, if one chooses to be open to what's available.
