March 2 rides

[SouthernBelle]

Yay I'm first.

Beautiful weather today. A bit windy, but worth it. A basic recovery ride planned. I did some exploring and tried a new road which was lots of fun. Very rolly with little real climbing. But I did have some climbing to get to and from it.

Stopped by some friends' house where they made fun of my kit (orange jersey, purple arm warmers, black and red Harlot sox.

But overall a good spin. Quads are a little tired today.

14.33 miles.

DH and I cruised down to the shop.
I forgot to charge my Garmin (again) and ended up keeping it in my jersey pocket, attached to my Energi-to-go, until I sucked the life out of those lithium batteries, and the Garmin itself died soon thereafter. I've got to be better about charging it.
BUT....
For the 25 miles or so it did record, it showed me a max speed of 847.4 mph!!! (that's about 1,360 kph for our metric sisters!)
Yes.....just call me the Queen of Speed!

Oh man - I'm glad you kept the avatar the same or I would never know who 7rider is!

Beautiful day today! About 56 degrees, no wind and sunny. 42 very hilly miles. My legs were toasted by the time I got to the last climb (that would be the one that gets me back home....).

First ride since I got my Bike Friday "final stem." Also first ride with the new (non-generator) wheel for daytime riding. First ride since my back injury.

Just a short spin - headed to a friend's for dinner. Lovely day here in NC - near 70 and sunny!! Bike did great - and my back did too! YAY!!!

Lots of really good firsts. Glad about your back and your bike!

Just a quickie today since I did 62 yesterday. 18 miles after the commute to church. I love headwinds - 20 mph inspires me to try to hold 12 mph for oh, 30 seconds at a time! Feels so good when I stop... all the world's silliness is shrunk to the side and it's just me and the breeze...

March goal: 700 miles and 150 aluminum cans. Got 20 miles and 6 cans today (as the snow clears lots of 'em are showing... and it's a good stretch after one or two or three of those interval things...)

Joe and I only got 32 miles in today. We were tired from yesterdays 15 mile mountain bike ride. Our legs felt like lead on our road ride today! But I'm glad we went out and at least got the 32 miles in.

I'm going to try and ride every day after work this week, weather permitting. With the longer day light and my work days ending at 2:30 I should be able to get an hour or two in at least. I even have a route planned out in my head!
