No riding all this week until Sat. Spending time with my 6yr old grandson in Maimi Children's Hosp. while mom and dad are at work. He had a bone marrow transplant.
He's in a isolation room with limited contact. I as well as mom and dad are the 3 non staff people that are allowed to be with him. He is very bored, and has mouth sores. But he's a trooper. Can't wait to be riding the tandem together again. A few weeks, I hope. |
Wednesday 9/09/09... Another good ride today with my daughter we got in a little over 36 on the newly paved Seminole Wekiva Trail. Sure seemed to make us faster, but we will not change our name.:lol::lol:

A repeat of Tuesday's ride, with more people overall and 3 especially sketchy riders. I didn't stay up with the leaders and when I found myself in the back of the pack, surrounded by the sketchy guys, I eased up enough to get gapped, then time-trialled around the rest of the loop.
Looking forward to another day off...:rolleyes: |
No I didn't. Looked like rain and my new front axle came in for the wrecked Hotrod so I fitted that back on but the spindles didn't fit and.....another forum another thread. sorry.
Brothers B-day today he wants to ride 64 but it is raining this morning, I hope he gets to go. I would have liked to ride with him but work keeps getting in the way. I hate that |
Friday 9/11/09... Another good solo ride today on the newly paved Seminole Wekiva Trail. Got out early and was back home before 10.
All is well in Slo Spoke Jim's household. :thumb: 35.81 (s)miles today 293.93 (s)miles this month 4,780.47 (s)miles this year 8 ride days this month (Sept.) :cheers: |
28.3 miles this morning. There was supposed to be no riding for me from yesterday to Monday since I was going out of town but it did not take place because of an illness. So I decided to get on the bike this morning feeling good after yesterday. Just noticed I have gone over 2K miles this year but with just few days till the official end of summer, there will be less saddle time in the coming weeks. Riding season is coming to a close unless the weather cooperate by not dropping snow on the pavement.
|
Rode 11 miles each way to work and back today. Like a crap sandwich made with really good bread.;) There are some tough hills on the ride home and I hit them pretty hard to see if I could manage to push a higher gear at a decent cadence. I handled it better than I expected so I kept pushing all the way home to get the most from a short ride. It felt good, especially when I stopped. :D
|
I did a short interval ride yesterday and a short 19 mile ride with 2000' of climbing today. I have a small group ride around 50 miles in the morning.
|
My wife and I did a leasurely 23 miles along the coast and around a couple of local harbors. Got in a total of 123 miles this week.
|
44 miles and nothing too exciting to report. I sure wish I lived nearer to some either steeper hills or longer hills. I am planning on going to the Blue Ridge Mountains soon to try and climb one.
|
32 miles with my daughter on the Kal-Haven trail in SW Michigan. Ideal weather. Ideal company.
|
Saturday was a forced rest day - nothing but rain all day. Sunday's not looking to be all that promising either.
|
Ride from Vancouver to Whistler. Absolutely spectacular views. Last 40K was tough, rolling hills. 120K total.
|
Sunday 9/13/09... Another good solo ride today on the newly paved Seminole Wekiva Trail. Got out early and was back home before 11.
Wildlife count today: 5 Deer 1 Possum 4 Sand Hill Cranes All is well in Slo Spoke Jim's world. :thumb: 46.13 (s)miles today 340.06 (s)miles this month 4,826.60 (s)miles this year 9 ride days this month (Sept.) :cheers: |
About 44 miles and 3600' of climbing (1850' in 4.4 miles) this morning. I had dead legs today and it feels like I'm fighting a chest cold. Hope it passes.
|
Pouring rain. Hard rain. But no traffic. A peaceful Sunday morning spin of 28 miles.
