Today is Thursday January 2 2025 but two days on the 31st of December i did a bike ride.
I attempted to break my pr on the timed loop i like to ride, i was unsuccessful.
I took the mountain bike, mainly because the road bike is still chained up to the trainer in the basement (plus the seat post is fused in a position a little high for me), the cx bike has a flat tire, and the single speed is hard on my body and i need to do some serious off bike exercise before i can realistically ride it regularly.
So i grabbed the mountain bike and a ton of cold weather gear, because it was cold, and gave it a go.
This route is close to my house and goes thru nice neighborhoods on fun curvy and hilly roads. It also has lots of stop signs and road crossings. I time it in real time, meaning however long it takes me to cross a particular street is included in the time.
On this ride i needed to break 35:30 but i could only muster 36:52.
Oh well.
It was a good ride.
I have ambitious bicycle goals for 2025 and setting a pr on this route is on the list.
