Happy National Ride A Bike Day. First ride since January. Surprising myself thinking "This is the body I used to do 100 miles?"

First ride of the year! 29 miles on a new-to-us route. Pretty good ride.
2/3 of the ride was urban/suburban until we got to the trail. Trail was 2/3 gravel and 1/3 paved. Pretty challenging ride considering the gravel surface, bumpy sidewalks and a 20mph steady west wind that affected the return leg home. Temp mid 70s and mostly sunny. Got lots of sun which felt good. Not sure if we will make this our standard ride. More to come! Garmin says ~1000 calories burned and an online calculator says 1400 calories burned. Wow. I get that depleted feeling pretty easily, but I feel OK so far. Dinner is not far away! |

34 miles, good ride. Temp low 60s and clear sky. 20mph headwind for ~10 miles. New paved trail for us, we liked it.
73 avg cadence. I remembered to start the Wahoo app this time! |

Very light breeze from the SW. A perfect day for riding.

Back to the old ways of driving my bike down. Bike path is destroyed or covered in mud in a few spots by recent storms.

49 miles, tough and good ride. I am wiped out!
Our new standard bike path. 10 mile car ride to get to the trailhead is a small inconvenience. The trail is smooth and flat and winds through farmland and small towns. Upper 70s, no clouds and light wind. We stopped for dinner at mile 32 and appreciated the calories! I gave my chain a thorough clean and lube before the ride and it was a big improvement. Seems like the saddle clamp screws might be stripped out of the aluminum clamp block. Second ride in a row they loosened. Need to check it out. Last edited by chassis; 05-31-2026 at 07:29 PM.. |

Various factors have conspired to keep me off the bike on weekends, and unable to commute so far - but I finally got my first commute of the year in last week, and hoping for another tomorrow! 9-10 miles of rollers in each direction is perfect.
