Fitness level went up a notch

My fitness level has gone up a notch, because I have been riding so much this week. I easily did 22 miles today. I put together a small video and posted it on youtube.

I had to do another 25 today

I just had to do another 25 today. I went to the bike project shop, the farmers market and Capps bike shop to buy a spare inner tube. It is starting to get hot.

I got another flat front tire, but I got it fixed pretty quickly. I found a thorn in the tire. Took 150 pumps on my little mini pump to get the tire aired up to 35lbs! I went about a mile, and I noticed my speedometer was gone! So, I went back to look for it. I thought it was lost for good, but I found it! 15.86 miles on the odometer, but I have some miles not logged.

Got 20 miles in today

I got a 20 miler on my Trek today.

I rode my mountain bike to the farmers market and bought some mustard greens,then I went to Dillons and bought a chicken dinner, then I went to the bike shop and bought a yellow bike bag. I got the itch to ride some more, so I rode my road bike another 20 miles. The wind is very strong, and I almost did not have to pedal home. I went around 45 miles today. The weather was very nice, but very windy. Last sunday I did a 25 mile ride on my Gary fisher. It was a cold and wet day. The trail was muddy and slick. I enjoyed it.

I could not get myself off the couch this morning,because it is cold, windy, and cloudy. Then the sun peeked out for a moment. I jumped up, got on my bike and went to church. I don't know what I will do when the Lord takes my bike from me. I guess I will die.

The front tire went flat on the way home from church. Of course, I decided not to bring any water to save some weight. Bad move, because I needed the water to find the holes. So, I had to go to a nearby creek and down a steep (and treacherous) bank. I almost fell in, but I did find the leak. I patched it, but the tube still leaked, so I had to go back to the creek again. It held after patching the second hole. I have a mini pump, and it took a lot of pumping to get enough air in the tire. The tire was cushy, but it was enough to get me home. I had a date at 3:00, and I was worried I would not make it, but it had a happy ending.

First I went to the farmers market and bought some spinach, onions and potatoes. Then I went to Moms and gave them to her. She was leaving for a week, but she said they would keep till she got back. I saw a couple of deer along the trail and, and I saw a family of Canadian Geese too. I took pictures of them, but I accidentally deleted them. Only 1 picture did not get erased. I had a very nice bike ride today!
