Where are you riding this weekend?



Friday: I just got in from a lovely warm 31 km bicycle ride in the country ... the snow is gone, the leaves are coming out again, the sun is shining.

Saturday: I'm still debating ... I'm going to have to check the distance on the route I'm thinking of doing.

yes

Saturday I'm leading some of the NorCal group on a century. Around to El Dorado Hills, Folsom, Auburn, Folsom, and back to start.

Tonight: 24mi solo out in the country to the east of my house. I LOVE being so close to rural country roads.

Tomorrow: Weather permitting, probably a 50miler with my club.

Sunday: probably 15-20 mi solo. Nothing too long, hopefully a few miles of that will be with my wife as we haven't gone out on the bike together in a while.

Monday: Club ride and cookout. Not sure where it is this year, I think I should probably go check their website for that here soon. They'll probably have a 40 or so mile ride that I'll likely choose. Maybe take the Gazelle A-Frame out and show it off (and it's old school Nuovo Record group). Oh, and show off that I can out climb most of them even using downtube shifters.

Racing twice on Saturday -- Cat 4 in the morning, 30+ 3/4 in the afternoon. Easy spin on Sunday, maybe I can convince the kids to ride to church with me.

Racing Sat: 60 mile road race. Track today. Lick my wounds Sunday and Monday with easy rides and skills work at the track (where I'm still a noob).

Saturday: I'm heading out for a 60-mile ride on a popular local and flat prairie route north of town here (Fort Collins to Rawhide power plant loop).

Sunday: 35-45 mile recovery/slow ride with my local bike club. They have not set a route yet, but I suspect that it will include some climbing in the local foothills.

Tomorrow I plan on riding from Pincher Creek up Chief Mountain and back, the loop is about 116 km. It's always an experience crossing the border on a road bike.

Enjoi07 and I hit Mt. Soledad early this morning. I'm out of town visiting my parents for the rest of this weekend. My next ride may be Monday when I return.

Going down to the American River bike trail and then up around Lake Natoma on Saturday.

Got a pair of real bike shorts, so now I can rock the moose knuckle.

Will probably do something on Monday too, but undecided.

Saturday: 50 mile ride to my local Particle Accelerator. It is called Fermi Lab. Will probably be crossing a river or two, with my local bike club. FUN FUN FUN.

Just a couple 19 mile out and backs near my house. On Monday I am pondering a rematch of a loop in the mountains I tried to do last year and was beaten down due to health issues. A shorter route of 50 miles with around 6000 or so feet of climbing.

Tomorrow it's down PCH to Laguna Beach and back. 40 miles.

Sunday ride the cruiser down to the beach and watch the people that made the journey from the inland heat to stick their toes in the water.

Did 33 miles today....nothing special. Would like to do about 50-ish miles tomorrow. Have no plans for Sunday. Will be watching the Quad Cities Criterium on Monday.

I'm not riding Saturday or Sunday, but I might do a 95 mile ride out to Port Jervis on Monday.

Sunday, Monday- haven't decided.
Tomorrow- think I'll ride up to Richardson, and watch a bit of the Gary Glickman Memorial Criterium.

Did 313km yesterday, don't think I'm going to do anything today. Slow ride with a friend, maybe 50km or so on Sunday.

Heading out in a few minutes to do the Crystal Springs Trail https://pages.prodigy.net/rhorii/xtalsprg.htm

Made it up to the races. Gary Clickman Memorial Crit in Richardson.

Friday: 20-25 miles out to this new development where the airport used to be. miles and miles of brand new pavement, zero traffic, long, straight and flat. I was riding as easy as possible b/c I did 15 miles of interval stuff Thursday.

Saturday: nada. Swimming with the kids.

Sunday: 50-70 with the Violet Crown crew. No idea where or how far we're going.

Monday: undecided, but there is another VC group ride if I have anything left in the tank.

Note: I haven't decided on a computer/meter/whatever setup, so I've got nothing on my Waterford currently. I'm really enjoying riding without any information other than what my brain gets from my body, bike and surroundings. Plus the bars look so clean.

I rode 50 miles to Morrow Mountain State Park, climbed to the top, and rode 50 miles back.

I did a 60 mile loop by the Chesapeake Bay. The hill workouts in Dallas were not much help and I had to hang on to the back of the group I was with the last 5 miles just to survive. It was a great ride though, and very beautiful.

Saturday, 51 miles, 2:52. Beautiful day, great ride. First half century. I'm stoked.

Yesterday 58 very tough miles with a lot of climbing including a bunch of 10%+ sections, once my 305 claimed I was climbing 18%, certainly felt like it.

Today, went down on a MUP on a recovery ride... how embarrassing. I just didn't see that mud, got a little road rash.

Two more days to go.

Today 53 mile group ride, I like the guys who do the ride, but with no hills it lacks any challange and becomes, well, rather boring. When we finished up I did another 26 mile loop around some of the hillier terrain in my area and then got yelled at by the wife for 4+ hours on the bike
Tomorrow is a forced day off to help the wife prepare for our annual Memorial Day cookout.
Memorial Day I am hoping to get 65 miles in and around the roads of No Central Ma and So NH. Hopefully the weather will hold out.
