Bike Riding

FYI: I ride my bike to and from work (5.2 miles) 3 days a week for 3 weeks, then 4 days a week for 4 weeks, followed by every day of the week. In this process I'm saving money and earth!

I’ve decided to start my way back from work on a detour path. In the detour I have to climb up a large hill on the road and then descend it. Today I got up to 51 mph on the way down that hill. I must admit, felt pretty darn good!

My total riding for the day tallied up to 8.4 miles. This broke down into 2.6 in the morning and 5.8 in the early evening. If I get a cyclometer for my birthday I’ll even know the altitude changes and all that.

I love my bike and just need a few add ons for the street riding and I feel it’s prepping me up well for the mountains!
