    @wendsg I love your humor and appreciate your way with words. Thanks for brightening my day so often. 😁

    24.7 miles today for a grand total of 192. Why does it feel like 500 when I stand up to walk?!
    Beautiful morning in the redwoods and 1400’ of climbing for the win! Search & Rescue training tomorrow but hope to get some spins in Sunday morning

    @billbiggers06 Am glad to entertain while I seethe in jealousy over your gorgeous riding route!! :lol:

    I am getting really, REALLY good at this 'wait until the last danged minute in the day and peeve off the parrot by making him stay up 5 minutes late to finish the daily 10' thing. :wink:

    32 beautiful miles today. 103 for the week, 224 for the year. Getting there! And yes, I did ride up and down the street to hit an even 32. :-)

    @SimpleSimonEU Congratz on kickin' the coof!! Bet'cher lookin' forward to those miles, yeah? Have fun on your rides!!

    @billbiggers06 Very nice!!! (and absolutely no foul in going up and down the street to hit an even number - I do that crap in Zwift all the time to get those extra experience points lmao)

    Daily 10 done! Nice and (almost) effortless. Did ditch the pace partner so I could sprint it out, and it was no major loss because the counter, I discovered, is bugged that it doesn't tick up if you aren't on your own avatar. So when you're incapable of getting your Zwift Companion to sync with the app on your computer while riding and go give manual ride-ons via clicking on other people and giving them an individual ride-on, your multiplier doesn't increase. Booooooo.

    No guilt sprinting when the multiplier was only x1.2 at 6 miles into the stupid ride lol - hit over 600 watts and held it for a solid 5 seconds! Good times. Held over 500 for the next 15 seconds, too. My avatar's butt didn't hit the seat until well past the goal posts.

    Woo, had to do a bike delivery for the munchkin (it was too cold for her to ride in this morning but she wants to ride home from school in the afternoon, so Mom to the rescue lol) and did a Zwift event (and had to round out the miles for that extra exp). Busy bike day, though both efforts didn't take very long.

    @SavageMrsMoose I feel the same way when it comes to my walking (can't quite run yet - I managed a couple of jog intervals, but today my ankle is mildly reprimanding me for that)!

    Today was a Zwift workout day, plus had to deliver the bike to the munchkin once again. Her little cruiser would be /so/ much better if the frame was, ya know, actually my size lol - and the seat post were adjusted to my height. Sucks being 5'10" riding a bike set up for a 5'2" twerp!

    Ride 1 - 1.97 miles

    Looking forward to tomorrow's slow and easy 10 miles with a pace partner. :wink:

    35.97 Road... amazing 72˚ day today. And a NBD! Trek Checkpoint with Di2. Still getting it dialed in but a much nicer ride than my old cyclocross frame.

    @Rich_SC Thats a fine ride there! I’m also jealous of that weather, which we Californians don’t often say. I’m looking at 37 degrees for my morning ride tomorrow. Looking forward to riding without so many layers.

    Today DID have glorious weather - girl rode her bike in herself so I didn't have to suffer on the midget frame.

    Unfortunately I fubar'd my sleep schedule, so I ended up too busy to make it outside today. 😭 At least there's Zwift for the daily ten.
