Avoiding Rain

I’m going to credit the Halfbike with stronger legs. 6.8 miles of Plateauing in 20 minutes.

I’ll need 2 days of dry to take-out any real bike. Too much slick-leaf danger.

Warm and Windy

I took the Halfbike out mostly to test tired legs and to see if I had resolved the Watch Heart-rate issue. Nearly no traffic

She’s such a fun ride.

Mr Tib out in the Cold

I took out the light bike and avoided most of the hills. I left in the mind 40°s and had 20 good miles before the goring cold pierced the heat-bubble my battery-powered socks afforded.

I managed to catch the wheel of an older cyclist heading my way; I drafted behind him for a good 2 miles at 19.2 mph — nearly like an actual cyclist.

Aurora in some Rain

I actually didn’t know it was raining outside until I had completed my 6.7 on Aurora & got denied any time on the Halfbike.

Irks me that my peaks get lost in the clouds

Turkey-Day Halfbike

I just managed to beat the rain — or neatly. On slightly slick roads I’ve always said there’s no safer bike than a Fixie. On slick roads Halfbikes are also very safe but since the torque makes the rear wheels (which do the steering or turning) skid just a bit. Makes for a fun experience.

Short but sweet. I’m still having troubles with the FITIV phone app hence the Watch screen-shots.

A Bit Of Wednesday Pedaling

I did a modified Wednesday route — leaving-out the Stadium Loop because I’m a bit superstitious. We had a day in the low 60s and virtually no wind.

I had 2 AppleWatch issues which I’m hoping a simple restart will correct.

Arachne In The Not-So-Cold

We had low 60s today in the afternoon and very little wind. I took a break from cleaning to take Arachne out. 6.4 miles in 42 minutes. I stayed off the hills though; just turns & straights in 2nd gear.

Birthday Aurora

A short 6.8 after a good morning of kettlebells. The weather was nice enough after 1 for an outdoor ride but at that hour it would not have been worth the rigamarole of dressing.
