Useless Ride Stats for 1/18
As as sign of how spoiled I am in Tucson I almost didn’t go riding today because it wasn’t completely cloudless. Yes, I’m serious. Went more on the flats; down to U of A and back. Fun ride.
20.05 miles
25.4 mph max speed
14.9 mph avg speed
1:20 ride time

Useless Ride Stats for 1/17
No riding the last few days because I was in San Diego with my mom. My occasional riding partner Darcey had texted me to find out if I wanted to ride Sunday a.m., and I was pretty bummed that I wasn’t able to. Today the weather cooperated and I took a break from [...]

Useless Ride Stats for 1/11
(With a nod to fixedgear for the formatting)
Finally ordered a cyclocomputer for the fixie to start keeping track of my riding so I could measure progress. Went out just as the sun was getting low, went down Old Spanish Trail past my usual turn-around point of Saguaro East, and made it almost all the [...]

A Smashing Hypothesis (or, how to make A Good Idea longer)
