2025 cycling week 44

October 27 - November 2

The mornings were cold this week but I managed to ride. It didn’t seem as cold to me as in previous years. (I wonder if my metabolism is coming back up and keeping me warm. I do feel warmer through the day as well.)

I did groceries on Saturday.

I did Coffeeneuring Ride No 4 on Sunday. The ride wasn’t that long but the Creme was the best so far.

Streak 2,073 days

October 20-26

The mornings were nice, not too cool.

On Tuesday, I rode to the eye doctor.

On Saturday, I did my errands in the morning.

I did my Coffeeneuring ride on Sunday. It was cloudy, windy and intermittent sprinkles. And Starbucks got my drink order wrong again.

This year 4,867 miles (Strava 4,670)

Streak 2,066 days

2025 cycling week 42

October 13-19

We got a taste of fall weather with cooler mornings. I dressed a bit too warm on Monday.

On Tuesday and Thursday, I tried intervals instead of riding in Zone 3 the entire time.

I didn’t have toilet paper go grocery shopping on Saturday so I did my Coffeeneuring ride that day. I did stop at Sprouts while waiting for my drink from Starbucks.

I had planned on an easy ride on Sunday. It was easy but long at 23 miles. The weather was just too nice not to keep pedaling.

This week 128 miles (Strava 123)

This year 4,730 miles (Strava 4,554)

Streak 2,059 days



2025 cycling week 41

October 6-12

The mornings remained warm but much windier this week. My e-bike battery has degraded to where each minute in Auto mode equals 1% of battery used. Last year, this only happened in Cargo mode.

I did errands on Saturday.

Coffeeneuring has begun and I did my first ride on Sunday.

I rode up to the Starbucks north of me. The weather was beautiful and traffic was not too heavy.

This week 125 miles (Strava 120)

This year 4,601 miles (Strava 4,430)

Streak 2,052 days


2025 cycling week 40

September 29-October 5

Warmer mornings and the lingering virus. By Friday, I was back to feeling much better.

I did errands on Saturday.

No morning swimming on Sundays so I no longer have to ride in the dark. I rode to the post office after breakfast.

Coffeeneuring starts next weekend.

This week 120 miles (Strava 114)

This year 4,476 miles (Strava 4,311)

Streak 2,045 days
