35 Miles O.D.

23 miles yesterday.
Today we had brief moments of sleet and then cold rain. We went to the rec center and I did a total of 55 minutes on a spin bike and another hour in circuit training on the weight machines. Otto |
About 53, with a ferry ride thrown in for good measure.

Out for a 24 miles mixed surface ride today. Large size gravel is rough with the 32mm tires. But that’s as wide as I can go. Dirt and roots work so this may see them C&O Canal in the future.

"How Far" is the worst measure of cycling for a cyclist. Riding for a certain amount of time is far more important than distance, and "How Fun" is most important of all. So-called "bikers" make a deal out of "how far" too, so they can pigeon-hole those they meet into some sort of hierarchy. I used to race when I was young and one of the reasons I quit was all anyone ever cared to say to you at most races most of the time was "how fast" or "how far". So now I just go for fun.

P.S. I am not too far from your philosophy. If you scan up, you will notice my last few posts omit distance and stats but I just chose to omit them. In so doing I did not criticize people like you did calling them, “so-called “bikers””. If people want to proudly compare their stats, so be it. I am not the god of Bike Forum, are you? |
31.5, 1,350 feet on a slightly extended lunch break. nice break in the day.
