ROAD AROUND HERE WAS WET TILL ABOUT NOON. OVERCAST, LIGHT BREEZE.

Having a fresh chain made a world of difference in the ride Yippeee!!! Shifted clean. No skipping. Just smooth drivetrain. Happy cat.

January 24th Rides

I decided to ride to the ride.
I was pretty cloudy so no pics
Wound leading the short ride - not bad
Stopped by the bank, cashed some checks, and rode home for 36 miles.

It rained for about 30 minutes, and off and on all day. I don't melt

Fredwina, you're riding! How nice.

Many more happy miles,

Finally Finally Finally!
Joe and I finally got outside on our "REAL" bikes and rode on the road. After 2 months of spin class at my gym it felt WONDERFUL to be outside again and on my bike. It was 37 degrees and cloudy but no rain and no fog and no snow! Joe and I got 30 miles on our ride. I am stoked! This morning I woke up (it's Sunday the 25th) and what greets my eyes . . . SNOW!
But I am sitting her watching the news and they say a high of 41 with sun this afternoon? Hmmmmmm

Nearly 9kms at a very gentle pace, just to keep the legs ready for my ride on the 25th
