Biking 37:23 [3] 5.87 mi (9.4 mph)
weight:227.8lbs shoes: WeeHoo

On the worst bike in my fleet with 35 lbs of kid and a tag along...this is more work than it looks like. Misjudged time, but did still get to chat with Ken after some of the races.

Biking 34:27 [3] 5.46 mi (9.5 mph) +29m

weight:228.6lbs

Harvey took his upright radio flyer trike. He had ridden it a bit yesterday, so it seemed promising, although oddly his hands got cold and I had to push a bit. It has a push bar, but the steering is super vague (a tremendous amount of lash), also like all products with push bars, it's 2" too low to be comfy.

Biking 8:27 [3] 1.05 mi (7.5 mph)
shoes: Access

I somehow forgot to put beef broth on the shopping list.

12 PM

Biking 4:15 [3] 0.44 mi (6.2 mph)
shoes: Redline Conquest Cyclo-X

Test ride. It is in many ways imperfect, but I don't need it to be perfect for its job (keep my steel bike off salty but otherwise ridable roads, also handle gravel duty for the foreseeable future). I stared at it for a bit and the guy knocked off another 15%, placing it slightly above my buddy's new flat pedals, so I tossed it in the Subaru.

2 PM

Biking 47:15 9.88 mi (12.5 mph) +94m
ahr:131 max:156 shoes: Redline Conquest Cyclo-X

Up to Northville for dinner bread and break in the new whip. They have a cheddar garlic loaf that has huge amounts of cheddar visibly in it, like marbled through it.

To be done:
* rotate bars down
* fix front d shift range
* order some new brake pads
* add another bottle cage

No rush on any of it, it's tolerable now, just a bit mash-y going up hills in the big ring.

Biking 10:32 1.47 mi (8.4 mph)

A PR for inbound

12 PM

Biking 53:20 13.97 mi (15.7 mph) +50m
ahr:134 max:159 shoes: Long Haul Trucker

Left intending to be easy mileage, but the tailwind pushed me so nicely I was on a it a little. One of the better paces for this type of route.

Walking 35:23 [0] 1.43 mi (24:45 / mi)

ahr:148 max:213 weight:227lbs shoes: Long Haul Trucker

So many terrible drivers

Five reps of Cass Benton hill (about 2:20 per at current climbing power)

Would have been peppier with a little more sleep, but I did some extra wind down time after an evening with plugged sinks, playgrounds, early daughter pickups and rainstorms.

Walking 30:07 [0] 1.24 mi (24:17 / mi)

Note

Billygoat is roughly the west most it's been that I recall.

Moderately peppy for the first half, not at all for the second. Wind, how are you always buffeting me?

1st 1k miles of 2021: 3 months
2nd 1k miles of 2021: 6 months

Here''s to 1k more in the next 4 months.

Pace somewhat slowed because I took the multi user path up to Northville. They are nice, except they pour them so thin that any twig of a tree that looks at them gives them a huge heave. Also all the bridges were slick since it rains nightly this summer.

ahr:121 max:164 slept:7.5 shoes: Long Haul Trucker

Lazy but done! At first I thought I was doing well after yesterday, then it turns out it was a nice tailwind. Saw daughter rolling to work so I detoured over and chatted a little.
