Late afternoon winds were steady in the teens with gusts up near 30 so I tried to get out there before 2. Oddly almost no traffic until the grammar school let-out near 3, which caused me to take a decent detour. Halfbikes don’t dodge very well.

I had a good ride — 11 miles in 63 minutes — and the humidity was low enough that I didn’t need a Veo Strip. My usual bone-conducting headphones tho needed charging so I went with a bargain pair I keep just in case. It’s important to be able to hear what’s behind you so Apple Pods set on Adaptive will work but they are expensive and one bad bump is all it wd take to lose them.

Never a bad ride on a Halfbike; everything is a steep learning-curve

It’s been a long time since I stretched a ride over 30 miles but today was the day for it. Not too windy but the sad Davidson detour ruined my easy exit so I up & overed it past Vinny Links. Basement Squats work.

Surprisingly not many cyclists today and those out there were on e-bikes both owned & rented. I’m hoping this isn’t our future.

Insta360 cameras produce what some call Teletubby Images but I’m thinking Popeye. It’s the extreme wide-angle lens

I met a kid once who said my Halfbike looked like a cross between a Bike & a Scooter. I suggested the mane Booter but he won by saying Skike. Skike is a better name because it’s really nothing at all like a Bike

I wanted to go for a regular 10 mile ride but my fatigue plus the wind reduced me to 8 miles in about 45 minutes.

About 80° out there but the humidity was on the low side.

Everything is a Balance Problem. Hours of sweaty fun

My weekend got redirected so I used Monday to test a new camera. GoPro for whatever reason has never worked for me longer than a few weeks. I bought an Insta360 because of a few good reviews. As the name suggests it sees everywhere around it & then you must pick & choose the sections you want to use.

I still get confused which button to push but it went well.

Vet appointment plus letting the roads dry. About 20 seconds behind Aurora

Temperature in the mid-80s so it felt like a Summer morning. I had not expected so much wind but I’m still on 17 teeth in back so why not try

Plus I had to go find a puppy

A good 20 minutes

I oopsed with the app & lost my first two miles but once I got going again I had a fine ride

Plenty of wind & gusts out there today. I’m still on 17 teeth in the rear

So I rode Echo for 11 miles in 35 minutes
