Old ride from my house to Father’s Day cookout in Grayslake. Of course it was super hot 90’s and humid and I started at 12:30 in the heat of the day with a serious wind from the south hitting me in the face.
My house to the trail is basicly 11 miles of frontage road to the trail head of the Des Paines River. After that was 19 miles all trail. There were some shady spots along the way, but lots more open and sun.
Along the way before the trail got a big Gatorade that probably saved me.
Good thing I had some miles under my belt or I’d be hurting and probably wouldn’t tempted this ride again today. There were some new upgrades the trail that basicly went right to the house.
Got a shower and lots of summer time food, hamburger and brats but also sweetcorn and watermelon!!

Road bike this time.

Road ride on my Mt Bike. Very comfortable and less shoulder pain, no numb hand either.
Lots of biking cause of my sore calf from the muddy run last Sunday

Road ride on road bike.

Was going to go to the track for a workout, but calf too sore from Sunday’s trail run. So I biked to the track doing 3 intervals on the way and biked back.
Used my hybrid bike tonight.
