Bike Log 2011

I figured I'd start a new log for this year.

Since it was so warm I took the first road ride of the season at lunch today!
My normal 24 mile route.
I took the cross/tour bike, good thing I had the fenders on it, lot's of sand and water on the roads. Only 16 cars passed me on the entire ride so I could ride around most of the huge puddles.

Very slow 15.2 MPH average due to me being out of shape and the heavy 24+ lb bike with the fenders and racks installed. I felt like a slug, but it was really nice to get some fresh air.
I swear some cows I rode by gave me a strange look.

I figured I'd start a new log for this year.

Since it was so warm I took the first road ride of the season at lunch today!
My normal 24 mile route.
I took the cross/tour bike, good thing I had the fenders on it, lot's of sand and water on the roads. Only 16 cars passed me on the entire ride so I could ride around most of the huge puddles.

Very slow 15.2 MPH average due to me being out of shape and the heavy 24+ lb bike with the fenders and racks installed. I felt like a slug, but it was really nice to get some fresh air.
I swear some cows I rode by gave me a strange look.

Same 24 miles ride today at lunch on my much lighter Trek Madone, 17.7MPH average.
Beautiful day today, get out and ride.

I am off and rolling with 10 miles on the road. So out of shape. Sucking wind just riding my road out and back. This is just a road I use to access the main routes... basically a warm up and cool down after a regular ride. Suck! I think I loose my of my biking legs over the winter than I loose of my skiing legs over the summer. Then again, my biking off season is longer than my skiing off season......

finally got out yesterday for the 1st ride of the season, felt good....

Interesting. I started road biking last summer, it helped my skiing tons this winter. Haven't hopped on the bike yet (bike/ski seasons don't overlap) but sorta dreading something like this. Sucking wind on a ski slope is nothing compared to a hot stuffy day on a bike.

First Century of the year today. Actually a metric century so it doesn't count. :smile:

Got out for the first time yesterday. If there were a contest on this forum for most out of shape, I might win. I was sucking wind hard for most of the ride. It felt great to be out..absolutely gorgeous day. More coming in the TR.
