Shoot. It happened. I twisted my ankle playing tennis last Sunday. I took easy for Mon/Tue. I have to drive tomorrow to go to a dentist appt. during day, so no bike commute tomorrow either. I'm going to be a little behind of 8 miles / day.

After back to back nights playing tennis, my legs are shot this morning. I was 6 minutes slower for my commute than yesterday. Plus it's getting chilly. I don't like it. Total of about 46 miles so far. For 8 miles per day, I'm on schedule. 09/06/13 Cycling 7.14 mi 38:54 09/05/13 Cycling 5.90 mi 29:04 09/04/13 Cycling 7.14…

My kid started school! Took pictures together this morning. I want to spend more time on playing tennis than bike riding, so I'm going to dial down a little. 10 miles / day was a little tiring when I was on tennis court. Too bad running on the tennis court does not count. :-) So, I'll set the goal to 8 miles/day, 240 miles…

Beautiful New England summer day brought me out for a scenic hour ride. Not a taxing, heart pumping one but joyful and calming, something that brings out a smile on you. Along the way I found a bike path I did not know in next town. 11.5 miles ride brings up my total to 292 miles this month, and hitting 310miles (10 miles…

I had a great fun with friends on Sat. in North Shore, MA - stopping at Woodman's for lunch, a dip at a beach and beer at the end. That keeps me on schedule for 10 miles / day! It looks like it's going to be a nice week but I'll be away this weekend so I hope I can keep it up. Total: 188.16 08/02/13 7.11 08/02/13 9.25…

Yesterday, I did a "big ride" to catch up to my goal. The front wheel hub was whining, the chain was squeaky and the rear break was sticking. Last night and this morning, I cleaned the front hub ball bearings and re-greased them. Cleaned off/adjust/oil the rear break and chain. I just came back from a quick test 5 mile…

TuesdayI replaced the tube and got flat again, but managed to ride both ways by pumping air in the middle of ride, and got 14 miles out of it. I did not have time to…

I am trying 10 miles / day average this month. Last month, I had 421 miles, so this month is a bit of down. I do bike commute, and add a few miles here and there to keep it up to 10 miles / day average. I have 67 miles to go and 5 and 1/2 day left in July. I did come in with bike this morning, so I will add at least…
