What a beautiful day
Put in a bit over 21 miles...it was so nice...right around 70 out, nice n sunny....had a great ride and for the first time I can recall I had no negative comments yelled at me...well atleast that I could hear.
|
Same in WNC, perfect riding weather.
|
I hit about two hours on the fixed, no freindly street people tonight, but no snarky college kids either. Threatening rain and I overdressed. On the bright side I think I lost about four pounds of useless water weight.
|
I go through 2 liters of water in 2 hours...and I could consume more, I just don't carry that much.
|
Rained all day here. Not incredibly hard, but enough to keep you good and wet. I really have to buy some rain gear. The temperature was nice, though, and it wasn't too windy. I got in about 15 miles just doing errands.
|
My ride on Friday wasn't so bad, temperatures were a bit cooler than i expected with temperatures in the low 40's with a strong headwind, prouducing a nasty windchill.
|
Everythings blooming here, and the temperatures have been warm, so it's been awesome riding wheather. It rains a lot in the spring, and I know it's weird, but I've always liked riding in the rain,(unless it's the dead of winter, you get just as wet with raingear ON in the South!) I find it really refreshing to ride when it rains, the only thing bad is visibility for cars, but hey, you can't have everything. Pity the poor suckers in Canada, who have to wait another month!
|
I was stuck all day inside after our ride in the morning, the ride was absolutly beautiful, nice to see the race team together.
|
It snowed overnight, but it melted, so a couple neighbors and I used the moisture to work on some of the dirt jumps here.
|
I didn't get yelled at...i'm so stuck on that fact
|
I'm a big dude, too, TRD. Sometimes when people yell, and I catch up to them getting out of their car later in the ride, I pull over and ask them what their problem is. Most times people kind of stutter an apology.
(Nobody get your panties in a wad, though, I only confront guys, never little old helpless ladies, or anything!) |

It was nice and sunny here in SoCal too.
Got out for a nice 40 miler. No problems at all. Absolutely beautiful ride! |
Hey PWRD, I can yell at ya' now if it'll make you fell better. :D
|
Cold and rainy the next few days. But this Wednesday it'll be 60 and sunny :D
|
We rode with some friends on the River's Edge Trail through a snow covered landscape. This time of year the pavement 'burns' dry within a couple of days. It takes a bit longer for the 14 inches of snow to melt off. 40F with 25MPH winds gusting to 32MPH. Was sure better than more trainer time! :D
|
Argh, gorgeous day today, the best day so far this year, and guess what?
I DON'T HAVE MY NEW BIKE! It's coming tomorrow, but I also have work tomorrow. Such a waste!!! |
Weather was kinda crappy down here in FL. Temp was in the 70's but we had thunderstorms.
|
Man, Maryland had a definite England feel to it this past 4 days...mid 40s, low 50s, misty, not quite raining. I got a good 3 hours of fixie riding in one thurs and 3 and a half hours on saturday. oh well, its gonna be in the high 70s in raleigh this week, yay!
and rev, whats this about snarky college students? |
Day started out great, nice and sunny, but a chilly 29 degrees. Temps got into the 50's, and bam the rain hit. No ride this Easter for me, but the this upcoming week looks great. Hope I can get some early days at work to go riding.

it passed by now, but it lasted a while. I'll have to take a ride tomorrow to check out some of the rivers, they should pretty high.

Not me...but people like Raiyn and Mael and any of the cylesdale riders...you see someone who rides a bike...that means they're physically active, and then you're going to go and start beef with them. I don't think I'd ever want to receive a blow from the leg of a cyclist....that just sounds unappealin, maybe that's why they hide in their cage til you catch up to em
