New record, thanks to several polite requests for someone to put on sunglasses, to no avail, before I started to park the bike to skip camp, then full throttle to try to make the buzzer.

Note

Plus four quality rock sessions over the course of yesterday and today - we are talking, well over the payload capacity of a 2011 Subaru Outback type loads.

Day one, I carried them, which sort of limited our haul because of grip fatigue on the up to 100' treks from the back yard.

Day two I wised up and brought one of Harvey's wagons, so I could just lift onto that and roll. We really got that car loaded up. Thankfully unloading has gravity assist, but it was still quality and has to be done delicately to avoid back or knee strain.

ahr:134 max:159 shoes: 2015 Camber

Logistics expert Angel expertly crafted a route that accommodated multiple objectives - hit Barbara's post race mileage target, extensively test the To Hell and Back gpx file, and get me home at a reasonable time.

On the drive out, lightning flashed all over the sort of route area that I could spy west of Ann Arbor, but the roads were fine and we encountered no rain.

We did see several animals - turkey family with a half dozen kids, doe and fawn, sandhill cranes, heron, and a turkey vulture.

That Teahen hill in the last few miles will be brutal to the contestants. I love it!

Costume day, so someone from one of the turn lanes cheered at Harvey in full Spiderman outfit.

ahr:120 max:155 shoes: WeeHoo

New hobby, when Harvey isn't with, is spotting people will ignorantly run me over, and then being ready with "wtf man" hand gestures. Today, blue Tacoma never looked to either side leaving the ATM and heading to the road, so that was an easy one to cover brakes and prepare the glare.

Thankfully not as eventful after I picked up Harvey, other than a small dog charging, which would have ended worse for it than us. I got just enough swerve on.
12 PM

Movie return

Forgot helmet, rode on sidewalk, had to brake check when an suv that had just ridden past me turned in front. Aardvarks.

Extra time meant the "long" way out, also Harvey once more preferred the bumpy way, so grass training.

Biking 20:00 [1]
shoes: 2015 Camber

Balance bike skills with Harvs. His slalom improved over yesterday, and he fearlessly rolls off the low curbs by the cultural center. He is certainly in a better place balance wise than I was when I tried to do a pedal bike, although knowing me I have some reluctance until he achieves mastery.

Walking 10:05 [3] 0.37 mi (27:16 / mi) +3m 26:35 / mi

Per my son's request, my mode of transport between the parking lot and playground was my skateboard. I didn't care as long as I got him to strider bike a bit.

ahr:126 max:154 9c

Setting flags.

Big tactical error: I was short on time and grabbed the yellow posts. The ground was ROCK HARD and it was impossible to get a good bury of the bottom. Two fell down, one restored by me, one restored by sometimes SMOC customer Linda, who texted Ken about it, wondering if we had forgotten one. Posts otherwise worked well for giving decent access.

ahr:133 max:174 shoes: WeeHoo

New record! We were once more sluggish to get out of the door and get sunscreened, so I hammered and got favorable outbound lights, plus realized there was a reduced yield sign route. Imperfect lights on the way back, but bearable.

Drizzle / light rain, which was not too bad. I did get smarter and pulled the trailer instead.

Wee Hoo should now easily be under $1 / mile. I imagine its resale has not been hugely diminished, given we got it at sort of 30% of retail. H is interested in a pedal version but I haven't seen many come across the listings I waste too much time on.
5 PM

Walking 55:57 intensity: (41:58 @0) + (13:59 @1) 2.32 mi (24:07 / mi)
ahr:85 max:128 shoes: Ghost Teal Logo

Harvey didn't want me to run with him. This is a safe place to give him some autonomy so that's fine. He did 5 * 400, with 30 - 300 seconds of rest, depending on what Grandma was up to.

ahr:114 max:153 slept:5.0 shoes: WeeHoo

I channeled my inner Wout and got the free bike plus tag a long minus Harvey to hit 22 mph on the speed checker sign on the slight downhill into down. Definitely no head wind.
11 AM

Biking 18:52 intensity: (35 @0) + (17:05 @1) + (1:12 @2) 2.72 mi (8.7 mph) +14m

Biking 16:25 intensity: (8 @0) + (15:29 @1) + (48 @2) 2.27 mi (8.3 mph)
ahr:121 max:139 shoes: WeeHoo

Getting to swim class is not impossible, just not ideal as there is no kid+bike friendly infrastructure at the light, and then just enough traffic on the cross road to be a pain to wait. Solo, I could rip it, but I don't take the same gaps with Harvs.
1 PM

Biking 10:42 intensity: (4:31 @0) + (6:11 @1) 0.76 mi (4.3 mph) +5m
ahr:101 max:134 shoes: WeeHoo

FAIL! I failed to check the weather. We got caught in a downpour which was fine by me but freaked out Harvey, so we sought shelter under a restaurant awning and radioed for support. He was getting a bit cold, even though it's like 80. I need to be marginally more careful.

Biking 13:37 intensity: (2:15 @0) + (11:22 @1) 1.75 mi (7.7 mph) +8m
ahr:109 max:130 shoes: WeeHoo

Support took a bit to arrive, if Harvey wasn't so upset it would have been faster and probably easier to just go home, but whatever. Other than rain in my eyes it was fine and kind of nice.

Walking 25:25 [1] 0.95 mi (26:45 / mi)

Harvey dropped his longest coast to date, spanning two lots! I set him up on a hill that is nice for holding speed at not quite jogging pace, and he crushed it.
6 PM

Walking 37:49 [3] 1.21 mi (31:16 / mi)

Attempted to check out the pre art fair setup, but we were a bit early.

Harvey's morning routine is like gas in an enclosed volume - it will always fill what is available.

Another panicked ride over for the buzzer.

That has got to be an outbound record. Things were going well, until someone was not thrilled with the enclosed option. I preferred to keep him dry until arrival, and then the general sunscreening process takes much longer than it seems like it should. Gave it and got favorable lights.

Dropped C Max off for inspection. Hopefully it gets a clean bill of health and can proceed to have the rehabilitative services people pay for hand controls.

Three laps of the track. Somewhat warm. We both managed to forget his bottle, so we radioed for backup and in the meantime, learned to drink from our hands at the community jug.
