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

In AZ, we get oranges before strawberries, in the calendar year. Look at the beets row. You never have to stop loving beets!!!

Plums, cherries, and peaches are fruits that grow on trees.

Nice recovery ride yesterday. I actually feel great today, no stiffness or soreness. Can't wait to do the Saturday 70 miler again. That's a great rise.
I really need the other Sunday ride to start up again. Thats a tough bugger. Fast and hard, with some short punchy climbs. But apparently there are some bent feelings on that side of the club about covid rules and such.
About 2 weeks till Kentucky men's trip.
Roughly 4 weeks till M.M.M better known as triple M.
200k and 10,000ft climbing.
I found out one of my local holds the record on that ride just under 7 hours.

Fresh figs. Food of the gods. I need to plant, and then take care of another one.

If you can find them fresh, they are actually better than dried. I know that's hard to believe.
