I rode my bike to work again for the first time this week. On the way home I was pretty pleased with the ease I was able to blow by another biker going up Howard. He actually caught up to me while I was waiting at the light on 2nd and I didn’t try to beat him from that point, but I totally dusted him on the way up.
I think my legs are definitely starting to get in better biking shape. I may have to start running here again soon too. I definitely want to start getting in better shape.
I didn’t ride to work today, but I did get in a pretty good ride after I got home. It made me realize that there’s a definite downside to living towards the bottom of the South Hill when you decide to ride up it and you’re out of shape.
Even though the weather has been weird and crappy in May so far I really think this is going to be a good summer overall. Chances are it will go by really quickly as well.
I should really get around to doing some of the site improvements I’ve been mulling over forever. Or I could just go to sleep now. I am kind of tired.
I rode my bike to work for the first time today. This morning I tried to dress appropriately for the conditions since it was somewhat cold, but I still managed to break a sweat by the time I got there. Unfortunately my ears took about twenty minutes to warm up.
The ride home from work was much nicer temperature wise and I tried to take it a little bit easier. By the time I navigated through downtown and up the short hill to my apartment I had started sweating once again.
I think my commute is going to work out pretty well this summer. Now it’s time to start looking at car repairs.
I have my bike. Time for a test ride now.
The weird weather continues. As I was coming out of the grocery store prior to picking up my new bike I had to contend with a sun/rain/snow mix.
I found out that my new bike finally arrived today. Unfortunately it still needs to be assembled. If I’m lucky they’ll get it done by the end of the day otherwise it’s supposed to be ready tomorrow morning.
The track meet yesterday was fairly entertaining. I didn’t make it to the grocery store though.
