The Zwift blimp over the coast of Ventura County, on a gloomy, overcast day. Perfect for cycling, or surfing.

Note: I am j/k about it being the Zwift blimp. It is not orange.

Northern Utah. Riding east back from Cedar Fort/Fairfield toward the Wasatch Front.

Lots of new snow in the past week so more snowshoeing today. It is a nice break from riding the trainer!




Here is what that looks like when I ride it on my bike.

Manressa State Beach, CA. Almost exactly 35 miles from home by bike. Nicest weather we've had in several weeks.

My wife has suggested more than once that all my taste is in my mouth. Keeping that in mind, I like it.
