Then was out in the local woods this morning for a fast 60 minutes. Did lots of hills, non-stop.

Hopefully getting up tomorrow for another hour + in the local woods before work.

The regular road ride this morning. 28 miles, 1900' of vert., avg. spd: 17.0 mph. I was pretty pleased with the speed, considering I only had less than 6 hours of sleep....

The only bad thing....its the 4th of October, I got on the bike at about 7 and I was wearing shorts and one of my light summer short sleeve riding shirts......Doesn't bode well for early season skiing.....(no pun intended). If it stays this warm, I might have to bring that 2nd water bottle with me again...I only had one swig left when I finished.

Got out for a short 45 minute ride in the woods this morning with 2 buddies. I was pooped. Not enough sleep this week. If I wasn't meeting my buds, there was no way I was going to get out of bed to ride this morning.

I got out on the bike 4 days this week before work. Not too shabby, if I do say so myself. Going to be a nice, warm weekend, I'll be out both days on the bike. Now just bring on the colder temps and snow...I'm so ready in more ways than one for the ski season!

Yeah, I bet you are....I think I need a light for the morning rides as well. With daylight savings not ending or starting whichever, until the first week in november, its pretty dark in the mornings.....Sunrise isn't going to be until about 7:20 or so in the next few weeks, right before the change.

Got out for my regular ride late this afternoon/early evening. 28 miles, 1900' of vert climbing and I shattered my avg speed record for the ride, which was 17.1 and today I got it upto 17.5. I also hit a new max heart rate of 184 and averaged 166.

But, I got back at 6:30 this evening and was wearing my absolute lightest biking shirt I own. Yes, W, global warming is a myth.

Short 50 minute "recovery" ride in the woods this afternoon. Mostly Hills ride, probably 1000' of vert. Super hot like the middle of summer.
