I so enjoyed picking up the pace yesterday, the Zeppelin is definitely my ride today. Just thinking about it now puts a smile on my face. We are looking at mid 50's, sunshine and SE wind at 10 mph. Woo Hoo!

Did about 7 miles. Curious about the state of the trail. Still a mess, half mud and half ice. The mud is fine but the ice just makes it less fun.

Just my usual simple variations on the 15+ mile loop.
But the kite surfer added some interest and there were small waves where it is usually rather calm. Standing taking the picture was a full throated wind. And in a bit of extra fun, my Pixel decided it would make a PAN for me so it doubled the kite!!!

Edmonds, WA - up and back
31 miles and about 1,100 feet of gain and I feel every inch of it!
That's once again, Mt Baker (I zoomed in) up near the Canadian Border about 80-90 miles as a crow flies. It is one of our volcanoes and there's a vent up at the top that roars like a freight train and smells like sulfur.

Best ever metric century time. Less than 4 hours including stoppages. Average speed of 28.5km/h. Not bad for a 15kg beast of a bike. 😁

Rode 125.6 miles. The day started around freezing and warmed to the high 40's with fresh breeze of 15-20 mph. Longest ride in the past 5 months had been around 31 miles, so, it was a big jump but I got er done.

50.05 plus some more miles that wasn't recorded because my computer was turned off so my STRAVA Art showed properly.

Well, it was this past Weds but I still did ride so I'm posting!
16.2 and 700 feet. It was not a bad day although me toes would probably disagree with me.

Early start at 6.15am this morning. Used my lights for the first hour or so. Chilly (-1C) but at least not raining. Good ride.
