Summer’s Here
June 16th, 2005
Well, it looks like we are going to have a rain-free day. Woohoo. It seems like it is has rained every day for weeks.
We have been biking quite a bit. I’m commuting to work on my bike several days a week and even getting a bit faster. I’ve finally been averaging over 14 mph for the commute to work (slightly more downhill than up - only one real hill) and approaching 13 mph for the ride home (2 hillls).
Bill even has me commuting to work in the rain now. Nothing like a nice morning ride in the rain and grit to get the day going right.
Bill and I are starting to train for the Weekend on Wheels in August. I think it will be my first 100 mile day. Oh pleez oh pleez oh pleez. That will be another milestone in my biking career. So far I have a max of 64.5 miles in one day.
