January Bike Rides :)

January 12, 60 degrees and on the bike! Weeeeeeeeeee I felt like a little kid playing on her bike My wireless sensor was loose and kept acting up on me so I've no idea how far I rode nor how fast. That is fine - it was my first bike ride in a month and it felt great! I did limit it to 45 minutes since I've not been riding or spinning regularly and didn't want to tweak anything. My shoulder is complaining....well it can complain away! It was fun and who knows when it will be this nice again?

Now I get to clean my bike as it is covered with grit and sand and salt from the recent storms but this is NOT a complaint

I did about 30 minutes for the same reason. Plus I ran out of plowed path:

Ahh, gosh, I envy you. Today is the perfect day for bicycling -- nice breeze, sheet clouds, not too cold nor too hot... Glad the both of you had fun! Fredwina, I'd not have braved an unplowed path either... yowza!

It's warm enough (has been for quite a few days), but drizzling, with quite intense fog, from all of the snow melt. Hoping to get outside tomorrow, and I don't care how short of a ride it is. I haven't been on my Guru since mid November as I kept saying, "this will be the last ride on the Kuota, it's going on the trainer." Well, I had 5-6 "last rides," through the first week of December. I did my yoga-spin dvd today (hard, hard, hard), so whatever happens outside tomorrow will just be FUN.

We had unseasonably warm weather today too (: Awesome road ride and sneaking in a trail outing tomorrow (:

It was warm here too...about 55 at its warmest. Our trails haven't been rideable for some time because it's been so warm and there's been no real freeze, even at night, so we hit the road instead. ~33 miles at speeds that I'm normally accustomed to riding at the end of the season, not the off-season! I feel good

So Last weekend I went to The Polar Bear Pedal II ride (10 miles recreational ride downtown Indy) with my boys, nephew and a couple of friends. It was in the low 20 degrees if I am not mistaken.

Today like many other bicycling lovers, we took advantage of the weather and in the afternoon. Went downtown with the family and rode around the city for a little over 2 hours at a leisure pace of course.

I also did my Saturday indoor ride this morning for 1:30 hours

BTW I got a road bike for my youngest son a 21 speed triple crank Giant Kronos Aluminum with downtube shifters. It was coverted into a Hybrid but the previous owner provided me with the drop bar and brake levers . So they will get install as soon as possible. Here are some pics of both rides.
