A warm day with more wind than advertised and yet for some reason very few cyclists out there. The long weekend must have burred off all the spare energy.

I went to the Airport for some Sprint-Intervals and got fed my lunch twice at least. It’s tough out there on a Fixie in the wind.

Most of the motorists left town I guess and most of the traditional cyclists were in the park leaving the roads for one lone Halfbiker.

A bit of wind out there but the temperature was in the 80s — a vast improvement

I underestimated the Wind but had a good ride over mixed terrain with nearly 900 feet of Up to it. My favorite moment was passing a guy riding an e-bike up a challenging hill. Halfbiking has made me a better climber.

I did not leave before 6 AM so I took a less trafficked route. It was still fun tho. Golfers can be very friendly.

Well not the actual Dawn but as close to 5 AM as I could

The humidity at 6ish was high but falling fast and the temperature was low — in the 70s — so I took a chance among the garbage-trucks and school-buses.

I’d been staring at the long uphill which 16th becomes and decided today was the day. Without cars it’s quite a fun uphill and I rode it every other lap without incident. At 8 9 10 etc it’s a death-trap.

Despite the high temperatures I decided perhaps foolishly to take Mr Tib out to the Airport and ride some Sprintervals. Hacia mucho calor indeed. The place was nearly empty but one shirtless guy passed me twice just to prove he could I suppose.

The work on the Ponte Storto continues ruining my upper loop at the park but it need the repairing so there’s that.

Once Red-Beard advised me to make my last lap speed equal my first la[ speed and I remember being able to do that but today I had no chance. Heat took away all my oomph

All I tried to do was adjust my left foot & boom down I went. Somewhere I violated a law of physics

Almost no humidity out there today plus some wind. I had a new chain put on my Baby & her odd clicking has mostly vanished. 800 feet of climbing today; more than I usually get. The route crosses some active car-repair businesses so I need some luck avoiding traffic.

Unfortunately I had two near-misses today. Motorists simply not paying attention. You’d think everyone wd notice a dude dressed like Spider-Man on a giant yellow trike

Still I had a good time & really felt the urge for 15. Alas time crunch

I tried again to enjoy some AM falling humidity on the Halfbike. I had wanted to start at 5:30 and get-in 15 miles of so but everything conspired against me and I began pedaling at 6:10. 13 good miles tho and a while lot of Sweat. Almost no traffic so little danger of any crashing.
