Tuesday Mornings are tough so I went with a short AirBike in the afternoon. Very distinct plateaus

8.1 miles in 25 minutes

I don’t usually feel the Lost Hour but today I never managed to put my day properly together.

14 miles total on Aurora with some Paris-Nice playing

I thought I’d beat the rain but my timing was off a bit. Still managed almost 9 miles and nearly 500 feet of Up

Kept it in 2nd gear because I’m not yet comfortable with the higher speeds. Give me a little time

One tough Tuesday but I managed 8.1 miles total 0n Aurora. Very distinct peaks no weary legs

Our wind died-down from gusts in the 70s to those in the 20s so I took Mr Tib outfit 33 miles across 2 hours & about 20 minutes. I fought to maintain 14 mph & never got it over 19 mph. The combine of Wind & Hill are catnip for me.

A very nice day out there

I got a late start so decided to ride Aurora Plateaus while watching the end of Strade Bianche. 12 miles in 37 minutes with good 75 rpm sprinting near the end — all lost in the clouds.

Then in the early afternoon I took Arachne up the the Golf Course Parking Lot again — 20 total laps in 2 groups of 10 — and out on the streets for two looping routes.

Got in a good 8 miles overall— 6.8 in 20 minutes

78 to go this year

Winds in the high teens with gusts in the 40s today. No Fixie for me. I took Arachne out for because she has 4 gears. 6 miles or so on nearly empty streets and in one nearly empty Golf Course Parking Lot

I’m rather surprised I managed to ride all the way home. Hills into the wind.

Because you can’t sit there is very little Down-Time on a Halfbike in the wind.

I got an earlier start than usual and went with some Standing & Reverse Pedaling as well as the usual plateaus.

So much stays up above the cloud-line tho. There must be a way to tweak that

I stayed inside today after a good walk with Pimsleur. 8.4 miles over 25 minutes with strong plateaus.

All the action is up in the clouds again.
