Beautiful day for a ride

Image
This morning I got ready to ride, and followed my usual pre ride check. Well my rear tire was flat. OK I know it sat for a few days as I didn't ride, but shouldn't be flat, but it was. So I pumped the tire up and rode my regular route. No problems at all. Great ride. Today I was not alone on the road as there were many cyclists out.

Short ride do to strong wind

I rode a little over 7 miles and it was a challenge. The wind was just horrible, I was pushing so hard just to keep from being pushed back.

Nice day for bugs!

I rode this morning and didn't realize I would become the meal for a number of flying insects. I came home and I was bitten in a number of spots. Will apply Afterbite, I should buy stiock in the company.

Lack of desire to ride

This morning I awoke in a horrible mood, and had no desire to ride. When I get like this, there is only one remedy and that is to push forward. So I rode anyway and felt so much better.

I set out this morning for my usuall ride. The temperature was just perfect, the winds not so much. Neverless I rode my usuall course, but felt like I was pushing against a solid wall. I thought it was the wind, but I was very wrong. It turns out I didn't check my tire pressure for a number of days and the tires were very soft, hense the slow and hard ride. I will check pressure more often.

Hot and Humid ride, but so nice to get out

This mornings ride was hot to say the least. The sweat was rolling in to my eyes after the first few minutes. I rode my usuall route, and I felt great. I did have to contend with some deep pools of rain water as it poured all night.

Hot, Hot and swellting!!

I don't know why, but my brain said ride and my body said "Your Stupid". Well I rode through this blistering heat and managed to do my usuall ride. I am feeling it now, and I need time to relax.
