Bicycling After 25 Year of not Riding

My first 10 mile ride. I had lots left in the tank.

Ya'll are impressive.
Good work guys.

No ride today. Had an old fart baseball game that kind of wore me out.

Took the kids to dinner in the Bakfiets last night. The bike rides like a dream, but it is HEAVY even before you get two kids in there.

Your average speed is down a little on that ride.

Haha, yeah. On the bakfiets you have to just enjoy the ride and know its going to be slow.

I'm giving my German gal a little love. Pass side front is metal on metal (Rammstein?) I can see the Amazon van with my new rotors

Back to early morning rides

25ish mph winds were rough to peddle into.

Yep. But you still got a few miles in. I check wind direction before I ride and make the first half riding into it.

My daughter's dog was being a PITA. She runs her sheep-doodle as we ride. We have clocked her at over 20 mph. Today for whatever reason she kept getting the leash tangled up, requiring about 4 stops to get it untangled.

What app are y’all using to track? I have been using MapMyRide which has been inaccurate for mileage by 6-7%.

Strava. I use the paid version, but the free one is great.

You can run multiple tracking apps at once and see what one works best for you.
