I took it a little bit easy today. only did 11 miles, but then again I do have a century tommorrow. The only remarkable thing was the Fog/Marine Layer was thick enough that was misting

Good luck on your century! :)
Fridays and Mondays are off days on my schedule, so I went to the gym and did chest/biceps.
Happy Friday! :cool:
I captained a ride for the club today and it was a beautiful morning for a ride. We rode 34 miles under sunshine and blue skies - really can't ask for much more in the perfect weather category. The group that showed up today was composed of experienced riders and they were fast. I rode the entire ride in my big chain ring and felt great at the end, hopes this means I'm ready for the century on Sunday (weather permitting). Time to do some chores around the house now that I spent the morning playing.
I got in 15 miles, but the skys were threatening, so I headed back. I wanted to do 25, but maybe next time! I did get to scout the route for my 10 yr old son and I to use to get to his Cub Scout Bike Rodeo on Monday. That should be fun! I bet he will bike farther than anyone else (about 10 miles to the event)!
It was raining in the morning so I didn't commute on my bike (I know, coward,
slacker)
However, at noon I noticed it was dry out so I took out the 40+ lb Worksman shop bike and rode 6 laps around our building (2 miles) at top speed.
if anyone here thinks they need a fancy road bike to get good exercise,
think again. That old cruiser gave me quite a workout! and I must have been going all of 10 miles per hour! gasp. no kidding.
and when the wind comes up, You REALLY feel it.
:D
Ran this morning and got in a short ride in at lunchtime - 10 miles. It was 90F (felt like 99F). I could feel waves of heat coming off the black pavement. Not good. I'm going to do a relatively long ride tomorrow, so I didn't want to do myself in today. I'll be up at 5:15am tomorrow to beat the heat. It's supposed to hit 95-97 tomorrow. Blakh!
Rode 17 miles in cold and cloudy weather. But glad to be on the bike! Hoping for clearing this weekend. Maybe a longer ride in my future.
