the real question is - did you carry that brick with you?[/QUOTE]

Yea it's the old curb trick. You got it down to a science. No I didn't carry it that's in my front yard.
26 miles today with 3 of my buddies.

Went to jacksonville_baldwin rail-trail to meet a guy fro CL about some wheels.
45 mins round trip and 2 hours riding, nice MUP but, I can do better out here without driving.
The longest I've riden fixed though...

Rode with 2 of my older riding buddies. (64,72) We rode down by the Ochlockonee River. Nice afternoon got in 30. May have been the best day for riding for a while as weather is expected to get cold again early next week.

Hell NO! at 15 degrees windchill hitting 0 degrees I think not. no way am I prepared for that. dang that's just too cold for me. call me a wuz if you will. rather be a warm wuz than a frozen one.

Syrupmaker 02-05-09 09:57 PM

18 miles after work. Froze to death. Couldn't put enough on. Even my thighs were cold in windproof tights. Feet like ice cubes. It was 17 last night. Brrrr!! 70 by Sunday.

Velo Vol 02-06-09 11:02 PM

Yes. Today it started feeling human again.

wolfpack 02-07-09 12:53 PM

yes, finally. 42mi. started out quite chilly (for here), around 32F, but by the time we finished, it was mid 60's. 70F right now!!

Velo Vol 02-07-09 05:39 PM

Yes, but not enough. I'll have to try again tomorrow.

Gavush 02-07-09 05:54 PM

My dad is in town for the weekend and after we got back from the planetarium we went for a quick ride out to look at the state park mtb trails and back again just before dark... 7.5 miles.

wolfpack 02-08-09 04:38 PM

25 very windy miles this afternoon. Yay!!! for being back on the bike!!

Gavush 02-08-09 08:46 PM

I was going to go out on the trace after I dropped my dad off at the airport but realized I had forgotten my shoes after we were well on our way. I went home and planned to go back to the trace - I could have made it back with enough daylight for a 1hr ride but got stuck behind a tractor on a windy 2 lane road for 10 minutes and was so frustrated I just turned around and went home. Now I'm going to eat a big bowl of double chocolate moose tracks to make me feel better.

Syrupmaker 02-09-09 10:11 PM

In the 70's today. Did 24 miles solo after work. Had 3 days off to visit family over the week end in Atlanta. Good to be warm again.

droobieinop 02-09-09 11:07 PM

Headed up to LBS with CL find, new fixie, 15'ish miles round trip, used MUS (multi-use-sidewalk) most of the way. No comp, no time, no speeds, just spinning thru the sprawl.

wolfpack 02-10-09 06:07 PM

heck yea! 18mi during my lunch hour. gawd - it feels good to be back on the bike!!

Syrupmaker 02-11-09 08:53 PM

21 miles after work in horendous 15 mph winds and higher gusts. At least it wasn't cold. What a workout though.

wolfpack 02-13-09 09:32 AM

18mi last night.

wolfpack 02-13-09 07:44 PM

18mi, wolfpack classic rr route

Gavush 02-14-09 09:34 AM

I went to go out this morning and thought it was warm enough out... made it 10min out and had to turn around b/c my ears hurt terribly. Seemed to have stiff breeze in every direction... what a waste.

wolfpack 02-14-09 01:56 PM

36mi. wolfpack classic road race.
