cycling week 16

Not a bad week except for Wednesday.  It was cold so I walked in the morning not realizing I would not have much time in the afternoon because it was Andy’s birthday. 

It has been very windy and the weekend was no exception. I wiped out on Saturday trying to ride between cars and the curb. Oops.

Wahoo didn't record the first .3 mile.

Some light rain. The plan was to ride 2-3 loops. Just over 7 miles and I got a flat tire. It was raining harder so I decided to walk home. 
I had about a half mile to go and skies opened up. Wet and cold.

A beautiful day that I wasted putting off changing my flat only to find that I couldn't change it because I couldn't get the tire off!
I ended up driving down to REI to have them change it. 
So I didn't have much time to ride.

Rode up to SR54 to Lexington Oaks. 
On the way back, an asshole in a Prius was blocking the crosswalk. I rode around him and yelled "Thanks, Asshole!" He then yelled back that I wasn't supposed to ride on the sidewalk. Ha! It actually was a MUP but whatever. He kept yelling through his open windows as he drove away. Then he stopped along BBD to yell at me some more and taunted me by calling me Fatso, C'mon Fatso. At least I was exercising. When was the last time he exercised anything but his fat fist on his tiny dick? 
The tailwind was nice.

They are working on the connection to K Bar Ranch and they are tearing up the intersection at Beardsley. I will avoid that area in the future. 
Very windy and slow to US301.

Wow. A good week for riding. Reading it was my last week for the Apple Watch challenge, I knew I could take any easy days. Even when I didn’t feel like riding, I wandering through new developments and racked up the miles. I love that I got to 141 miles and my longest ride was only 29 miles.

Wasn't feeling like riding more than a few miles. But then I started wandering through some new developments. 
I rode through Estancia. Those are some big homes! They are the same at Meridian near MPIII but have bigger lots. 
Then I rode through the first phase of Persimmon Park. Some of the homes have their garages in the rear. But the roadway is a named street and no an "alley." 
I rode to the new arena. There is also a hotel back there than I didn't know about.

Rode up to SR54 and west to Starbucks in Land o Lakes. I like not pedaling hard. Why are so motivated for speed? 
I got a marshmallow dream bar and water. I filled up my water bottle just in case. 
The ride back was nice with the tailwind. 
Turns out I needed the extra water. I drank all of mine by mile 25. 
Ryan laughed at my route since I rode all around just to avoid the mess at SR56 and I75. But I don't like riding on sidewalks and the bike path is gone during construction.

A better week for weather and riding. Well, except for my seat post bolt breaking while I was riding on Monday. 
That meant I had to ride the 820 the rest of the week. Slow. So slow. But that didn’t matter as the Apple Watch has challenged me to workout 160 minutes per day!

SR56 to Morris Bridge. State trooper blocking the path across from Winding Ridge. 
Stopped at MPB for the light. Started again and heard a crack then my seat fell off! 
The bolt sheared in two! No way to fix it. I tried to ride whilst standing. My legs did not like that. I realized I could sit on the rear rack and pedal though I am sure I looked ridiculous. And it strained my back. I went through The Ridge then walked home from there.

Rode down to MPB then SR56 to Pinchers. Heike was meeting me there for my birthday. (Only 5 weeks late). 
I couldn't get my lock open so we sat "outside" so I could keep an eye on it. 
Two margaritas and peel and eat shrimp. 
As we were leaving the pretty (but slow) server offered me key lime pie. I took a slice home. 
It got dark as I rode home. I am glad I had my lights on.

Rode to SR56 to Morris Bridge to SR54 to Home Depot. I ordered grease for my new seat post. 
Morris Bridge is narrow and busy and I do not like riding on it. 
Rode back SR54 to FoxWood and through to Meadow Pointe.
