Weekday Rides?

After the weather kept me off the bike for 9 days, I FINALLY got in a glorious 20.5 miles tonight. Hard miles too, though I didn't realize how hard until I looked at my heart rate monitor. I deliberatly steered my bike to new areas where I would have to deal with signalized intersections and traffic....and found my bike won't trip the signal sensor. I finally just became a pedestrian and walked it across.

My neck seems to be taking everything I throw at it without much complaint (outside of the Schwinn spinning bikes), so I think I can safely, and finally, start building mileage

I took a break for a week to rest my foot and today went 12 miles on the hybrid bike. It was hot and humid after a morning thunderstorm and absolutely, wonderfully fun. I took the limestone hilly MUP that goes around town and saw no one else on the trail. Birds and bunnies were flirting. Foot is giving me no grief and I am happy to be riding.

I rode Monday.
5.56 miles to a client's house, 5.2 miles with the client (a 13 y/o boy with PDD), and 5.56 very fast, cold, and windy miles home. I was hungry and exhausted and didn't really think riding 16 miles this way would get to me.
Yea, I forgot I had run at 6 AM.

Woohooo! Glad to hear the foot was fine

I rode Monday, something like 18 miles.

Right now it's raining, but it's suppose to let up by the time I leave, so I'm commuting. I expect to get wet. Hope I don't melt.

19.2 yesterday, 12 this morning. I got up early for that too.

I did my old weekday training loop out of Broad Ripple with a girlfriend of mine. It's been a long time since I've ridden in heavy traffic, and the cars seemed particularly aggressive last night. Next time, I'm just going to take the entire lane if they're going to pass with inches to spare. Jerks.
