Jan 21 ride

[easterbird]

Probably the coldest day so far(24 degrees) but no wind and no precip here in Bucks Co. I needed a ride so went to my LBS. My sensor had stopped talking to the flight deck (I think I was cleaning the bike a little too vigorously) ...anyway it was a destination which helped me get moving. Everything is now working again. Skies were overcast but a great ride w a real accomplishment in addition to my sense of well being right now.Total 32.5 miles! Have a great day

Slimy commute to church (5 miles round trip)... I am really, really wanting studded tires 'cause they would have made riding today basically easy. It was just on the edge of "oh, take the car" - but made for having to ride further out than I like (and that's saying something - I"m solidly on the left hand side of the right hand third of the lane) and led to an interesting interaction with an ambulance, and because I had to pay so much attention to the road I don't even know how close it was. I just know that when I was on the completely left hand side of the road to hop onto the perpendicular path, the ambulance had stopped there (on my left..., oh about a foot away) like, s/he had the whole blooming *right* side of the road to work with and I *think* I was pretty obvious about my trajectory).

It is actually snowing right now in MD.
Out of complete desperation, I pulled out the rollers today.
Ick. I hate rollers.
But, I rode for a half hour (held onto the railing with one hand for the first 7 minutes until DH coached me into letting go and riding with two hands on the bars. Gulp!), did a bit over 9.5 miles so I could at least add SOMETHING to my "2500 in 2007" total on BikeJournal.

Gulp! Indeed! Nice going!!!

I had a very nice Sunday afternoon of pedalling! A glorious day. Sunny and cold (6C but windchill brought it a bit lower) and windy. Headed out after a hearty fry up for breakfast so I had lots of fuel to burn. And freshly cleaned bike and freshly cleaned bearings (had to cut yesterday's ride short due to loud noises from front bearings). Great ride. Did about 35 miles and made it home just at sunset. Should have brought the camera. I'll try to remember next time. Had some very nice views along the way.
