Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Got all dressed up and ready to go and it started pouring. Weird thing is nothing is on the radar.

Daughter turns 3 today! Everyone tells me it’s going to be a tough year.

Master reset time I guess...
I’d go with the Wahoo. It was there and felt your pain. Strava wasn’t.

Happy birthday to her.

Age three is easy. 13 is when it all starts to get real.
