Now back to your regularly scheduled bike log....

I MTB'd for about an hour after work on Wed after work. It's getting hard to get a ride in before the light goes away (no light)....

So, why don't you buy a light? I got a couple of blinkers, one for the front, one for the back, that came in about 5-7 bucks a piece. What I don't have is the desire to ride in the dark and cold

Today's ride started cold around 9:15 at Lake Massabessic in Auburn NH and slowly warmed up as we headed north to Bear Brook State Park and climed to the top of the mountain in that park. The trails we rode were snowmobile trails and we spotted a few small game hunters with quizzed looks on thier faces when they saw us rolling through...

Did about 15 miles yesterday on my rigid on a relatively flat trail with my 3.5 y.o. daughter on the back.

Took a road ride today. Did the "usual" ride. 31.25 miles, a tad less than 15 mph. I am relatively new to road riding. I have still yet to find the right clothes for the weather. I was closest today. 2 base layer/jersey and a super light wind vest, with a full mesh back. Anyway, ride-on

Hopefully I'll get one or 2 pre-work rides this week.

Got out after work in the woods for about 75 minutes. Did some of the usual trails, some new ones and then for the last 20 minutes or so, did some hill training with a friend. We did 3 laps of a succession of about 4 relatively short, but pretty steep hills intermingled with some heavy roots and a few steep rollers. Definitely a good workout considering only had an hour of daylight. (yes, still no headlamp!).

Dude, that's sick! I started keeping track at the beginning of the season. Since that's at home, I don't have an exact figure, but it's about 750 miles.

On the bright side, I did buy 2 new saddles this year!
