Leisurely urban ride. First to Hispanic Festival for empanadas, beer, music, and chat with Jim Jeske. Then on to Soulard for lots of local foods: apples, peaches, red peppers, cuke, cantaloupe, corn, green beans, and a loaf of sourdough rye from Black Bear.

Stiff wind from NW - felt great! First day since June 11 with low under 80 - summer's back is broken at last!

C • is Black Bear the name of t... 1

To and from Y - beat storms.

8*6 sets. It's been a while so back to easy sets.

11 double sets. Re-arranged, new, replaced machines. We old-timers don't see the point. :) Also, my Lat Pulldown dropped from 185 on old machine to 125 on new machine with new handholds. Weird.

STL Rec Cyc ride on MCT trails, starting at Visitor Center on I-270.
Good group, good pace, pretty hot and humid.

To and from Pace series at FP

Pace series at FP. I guessed a pace a bit faster than last week's 9:20/mile for 4.5. Same pace, felt harder, very humid. 47 sec off

Wayne Marsh ride with Rec cyclists from New Town area soccer fields to Portage des Sioux. Fast pace, good group, very flat. Clouds kept temp down until last half-hour.

Easy urban ride with Fran to JB via Carondelet and return via River Des Peres. Fewer cyclists than expected. Great to get out as sun came out.
