Your Ride Reports - January 2022
Happy New Year!!
If you are new to posting on this thread, or if you are new to cycling, we welcome you! If you are returning from a previous thread, we welcome you, too.
This thread is for anyone who rides a bicycle ... or unicycle, tricycle, tandem, etc.
Are you an experienced road cyclist? Do you bike to work? Do you pull your children to the park? Do you ride weekends? Do you spin at home or in the gym? Is Zwift your thing? Do you race crits, ironman, or centuries? Touring? Audax/Randonneuring?
Or are you just starting out and remembering how much fun you had biking when you were a kid?
There are no set challenges - this is a mixed-ability / mixed-experience / everyone welcome group.
Just pick the target that you would like to achieve this month and post updates throughout the month as you work toward your target. We love seeing photos of your rides and hearing all about them.
Given the current situation many of us will be cycling solo or indoors. Don't feel alone! Share your accomplishments with us.

First bicycle ride of 2022!!
It was 29C (84F) when we headed out with about 25 km/h winds from the north. North winds are hot winds.
But it was overcast and we had the occasional drop of rain, so it didn't feel too hot. I think there might be a storm later!

As you know, Rowan and I were long distance cyclists till his accident.
Since his accident, the longest we've cycled is about 53 km, and we did do one ride of at least 50 km every month in 2021.
Today we decided to go longer!! Today we cycled 64.47 km! We both started to get tired toward the end, but we did it!

I was back in the Ocala Nat Forest for the New Year's weekend. Last Thursday (actually December) I went for a foggy 40 mile ride. When I started the visibility was not too bad. On the way back it really thickened up and was a bit nerve racking. Friday and Saturday were even foggier so I skipped riding, but did go for a couple mile walk in the woods. Sunday did another 40 miles on a clear day with perfect weather.

Two nice rides this weekend. The weather was great. Cool and sunny. Light headwinds going out and strong tailwinds going home. Saturday I rode out to Thonotosassa for 42 miles and Sunday I did the Picnic to Davis Is. ride for another 42. The only downside on Sunday I got a weird pain in my knee at the beginning. I kept riding and it eventually worked itself out. Also, had to swerve out of the way of a city bus taking a corner too wide.

I watched for something of a winter-weather break, then on Wednesday did a metric century 'down Jersey' with 3 stronger riders. Still windy and chilly, but a good time was had by all.

Kind of a sad month for me. I've only done about 2 hours on the trainer in the past two weekends. It has either been rainy, windy or cold. This weekend will be no better. Even colder still.
