    Had one HOT hour in the saddle! 102 here when the wheels hit the road. Had a bit of a breeze, but really had to work in the heat.
    It was my average daily ride through the hood. Averaged 16.9 mph!! That is fabulous for me. I'm getting stronger girls. Watch out next year at IM!!
    A half hour after I got in a dust storm descended on the house.
    Glad I missed that! After being caught in one last summer, I'm a bit sketchy about those things.

    Uneventful ride to and from work. Did a casual wind sprint on the way to; see the light, sprint to the light
    miss the light, easy spin, light turns green
    sprint to the next light

    Arrive tired but happy

    This is not my commute but a view from Alameda Creek Trail by the Bay

    My 26 miles ride was wonderful with no wind. The grass was so lush-green and the rain last week turned many fields into lakes.

    8 mile commute on the new bike. "Mitzi" the butch Kona Smoke. Beautiful morning, cold windy rainy evening. Need to replace stock bike saddle.

    got put-down about my Tyrannosaurus head squeaky horn. (I embarrass serious bicyclists and make cars think we're just playing with toys.) You bet yer buns I'll be keeping that thing PROMINENTLY on my bars!

    If it isn't fun, why do it?

    Maybe T Rex needs some earrings. Or a necklace... maybe a lei. Lipstick. A goofy hat. A mohawk.
