FLAT! My first flat, of course in the rain. Can't figure out why it flatted; there was a small hole in the tube, 90 degrees around the tube (so right in the sidewall) but the tire appears to... read more

alright Full double school 12.21 mi 00:46 15.8mph pace
Decided to see what I can do after that big ride last Sunday, so went all out. Pretty sure that's a PR for speed, and that's with around 15Mph wind. Now I'm grounded for the weeken... read more

alright Laurel Grove Backroad Loop 31.56 mi 02:29 12.7mph pace
First epic ride. PRs for time and distance. Last 10 miles were rough, even though terrain wise they were by far the easiest (the total climbing was 1100 feet, most of which was in the first 20 mi... read more

alright St. Johns Airport View 12.14 mi 00:51 14.3mph pace
Was supposed to be a recover ride in prepration for Sundays 30 mile/1090 feet of climbing route...but the ego took over and, well, not so much.

alright St. Johns/Airport View/Hickory 12.98 mi 00:53 14.8mph pace
Bad legs, but the never really got much worse. A lot cooler today. I couldn't get my HR up for some reason even though my legs hurt and I was breathing hard. Typical bad day, but with a not... read more

good Three Notch Trail 7.59 mi 00:58 7.9mph pace
Took the kids to Three Notch Trail. Hope (5) pooped out early, so we went back and got the tow-bike so she could just kick back while Ian (9) and I rode. That time includes the time it took to at... read more

good Clarkes Landing 9.71 mi 00:48 12.2mph pace
Was feeling good. Bright sun, warm but not too hot, everything smelled like spring. Downhill into Clarke's Landing with a tailwind going 28Mph, then the turnaround into the wind, which wasn&... read more

alright St. Johns/St. Johns Neighborh... 12.15 mi 00:51 14.3mph pace
Got kinda tired, but I haven't been riding a lot (May is always a cursed month). Hopefully June will be better.

alright Full double school 12.26 mi 00:49 14.9mph pace
First real ride since the stomach flu. Not bad, but could have been better.

I think my ride today has convinced me that I can still do the SMECO 47 mile ride on June 1st.

alright Loops out, hickory back 9.14 mi 00:41 13.4mph pace
First ride after the WORST STOMACH FLU EVER. Legs were pretty bad overall, but I was only going for recovery pace. After losing 6 pounds since Friday, I actually gained back .8 pounds yesterday, ... read more

good St. John's AIrport View 10.64 mi 00:48 13.4mph pace
Working on maintaining an "all day" pace for when we do the 30 mile run. Not a bad start. Mid 60s.

alright Clarke's Landing 9.86 mi 00:43 13.6mph pace
Wind going out was brutal. Richard flatted almost immediately and walked his bike back ( thought he had a phone, and he thought I didn't have one, bad combo). Nate finished the ride with me.

alright Full double school no second ... 11.71 mi 00:52 13.4mph pace
Tried to do reverse loops for any of the p and q shaped loops, but got lost in Primrose as a result. Odd wind direction changes led to a double headwind. Legs hurt since I was digging a trench fo... read more

good Full double school 12.29 mi 00:52 14.2mph pace
Time and distance are estimated; started computer late. Low 60s, nice day, started easy and picked up the pace late. Had a couple of spontaneous sprints in there; hopefully my home landscaping ta... read more

alright Loops Out St. Johns, Airport ... 12.57 mi 00:52 14.5mph pace
What started out as a moderate ride in moderate wind at a moderate pace with moderate temperatures turned into a painfest of uphills into the not-so-moderate wind and a downwind leg where we let ou... read more

blah Loops out, cypress no second ... 9.58 mi 00:40 14.4mph pace
Had work on my mind, so I shortened the distance a tad. Good pace though considering it was 50 and I was back to tights and the thermal jacket.

good Full Double School Straight Back 11.55 mi 00:49 14.2mph pace
Much harder effort today, solo. Still, 14.2 is hardly a world-beating time. Legs are NOT happy with me, but that's OK. They need to come out of hibernation. Maybe I need a long ride to get... read more

good Full double school straight back 11.54 mi 00:51 13.6mph pace
First ride since the dreaded stomach bug, although that's not what kept me from riding, it was life to be honest. Still, even though it only mid 60s, it was warm enough for shorts by far. Ri... read more

A 35 mile week. Nothing impressive at all, but when was the last time I had one? First week of December. Oy but this winter did not cooperate at all.
