500 MILES LATER!!!

October 19, 2007

So I officially logged 500 miles on the road bike with this morning’s ride!  In all fairness I crossed this milestone quite a while ago because I don’t include the 15 miles/week back and forth to campus nor did I include any of the numerous 10-15 mile rides I did before I had a cyclometer and while fine-tuning the bike.  So in the interest of scientific ethics I can provide hard evidence that I’ve ridden 500+ miles only.  Hopefully the next 500 are just as enjoyable and as the weather in BCS is finally cooling down I think they will be.

Round two!

May 21, 2007

I went riding again yesterday, this time solo.  I added a few miles to the trek (starting from home instead of the Bush Library.  You can see my route here.  I’m planning to go again tomorrow and take some photos.

First Ride!!!

May 18, 2007

I went on my first ride with the new bike today. It’s not new new, but new to me. After spending several hours cleaning and tuning the bike I was ready to go. Special thanks to Dr. Maslowski for showing me one of her local bike paths. First time out: 16.5 miles, 1′:20″. I can’t wait for more, my legs on the other hand are ready for a break.
