After a wet weekend, which we have not seen in over a month, it was nice to have a dry morning for my bike commute to work. Don’t get me wrong, the rain was welcome and much needed. Things had become pretty dry around here. The weather report indicated that it was cooler this morning, but [...]

We had a pretty good turnout for today’s ride with a total of 7 people showing up. The weather couldn’t be any better with everybody thoroughly enjoying the morning ride. The group included a few men from the Cloverdale Baptist Church men’s group organized by Peter. Congratulations to Peter as not only is this his first [...] My friend and co-worker Peter, and I went for a walk today around the campus while I tested a Blackberry GPS exercise tracking application. My Garmin Edge 305 is acting kind of funky lately powering down mid ride and scrambling data so it looks like I will have to send it in for repair. As a result I [...] This weekend has me pretty busy with an advanced cycling training course called CAN-BIKE 2 . The sessions are on Friday evening, all day Saturday and Sunday. CAN-BIKE is a program designed by the Canadian Cycling Association as a series of courses on all aspects of cycling safely and enjoyably on the road. CAN-BIKE 2 is an advanced course [...] In spite of the great weather I was the only one to show up for this week’s ride. While the day started partly cloudy it quickly cleared up and turned into a beautiful sunny day. Lot’s of other cyclists were out on the road and trail taking advantage of the rare mild and sunny spring day.

[...] It was a fantastic day for a bike ride as evidenced by the many cyclists on the road. This was our weekly Valley VeloRiders group ride and we there is still a small turnout but is is early yet and the weather up until today has been less than ideal for the recreational cyclist. I was [...] I thought I would go on a little bit of a different direction today covering one of my other passions, football (soccer for the uninitiated) along with a really funny couple of tweets I received yesterday. While my subject order had the latter in last, I think I will cover that first. Yes I know the [...] Since today was predicted to be a sunny day and I had been feeling pretty good lately so I decided yesterday that after a couple of bike commutes under my belt this week I was ready to get back into longer weekend recreational bike rides. I thought that I had recovered sufficiently to be able to [...] While I am not going to blog about every commute, today’s was important being my first day back on the bike in just over 2 months. My shoulder surgery recovery has been slower than I had hoped and there is still a ways to go, but things are now improving more quickly so today was very [...] |
