Oh yeah!!! This has been one of the hardest rides I've ever done, but also the most exhilarating. I will admit that within the first 3.5 miles I had to walk about a tenth of a mile to get my heart rate down from the 193 range, but that was it. Beautiful ride and enormously satisfying.

To work and back the short way. Then to Jared's and back. This didn't quite map right. It was about 14.5 miles. It was a good night of booze and movies. Also some Mortal Kombat II thrown in there. On a PS3.

To work and back. I had to go really quickly back home so we could drive to visit Erin in Denver. Otherwise I would have taken the long route. It is getting cold in the mornings, but the full fingered gloves I got really help.

Been a few days since I rode. We went on vacation without the bikes and I drove a couple days last week. I also stopped off at Performance Bike this trip because I needed full fingered gloves something awful. The morning ride was freezing cold.

To work and back. Rode up the Lemay hill in the morning and went the long by Sean's house on the way back. I had a real scare with my Garmin on this one though. It wouldn't power on and I thought it was broken for good, but tech support helped me out and it appears to be in good working order now. Phew.

To work and back the long way. That was probably the fastest I have made it home the long way. I was passed by a guy on a road bike, so I decided to keep up with him. It was not easy, but very gratifying that I could.

To work the short way, then to Sean's for the premier of Sanctuary and finally a ride home in the dark. Kim when the short way to meet me at work and then we both rode to Sean's and home. Go Kim!

To work and back the long way both times. It was funny this morning because I managed to get right behind Sean as he was passing Dave. It was also sad because on the way home I forgot to start the garmin timer until I was nearly 3/4 of the way home. so I actually did another 4 miles compared to what the thing says.

To work the short way. Then Sean and I went home via Fossil Creek trail. Going down the hill at Lemay was quite exhilirating, though there was a stupid van turning right that ruined it. He nearly hit the cyclist coming up behind me.
