Note
rhr:43 slept:6.5 weight:75.7kg (rest day)

legs a bit tired so took a rest day from the bike. Perhaps I'll go for a short run when I get home instead...

Wednesday Aug 30, 2006 #

Bike - Road (commute) 53:01 [3] 25.0 km (2:07 / km)
slept:8.0 shoes: Cannondale ST1000

In to work late - 10:45am - not raining and dry roads....
Didn't feel particularly fast, but was concentrating on keeping cadence up, counting it out periodically, surprised to reach Rt44 in 45 minutes.. Probably my best time on the regular route even though I spent at least a minute and a half behind a K bus on Tolland Green and then had to detour some road construction by riding through some soggy soccer fields near campus - so without distractions this should have been a sub 50 ride...

Bike - Road (commute) 1:00:50 [3] 25.0 km (2:26 / km)
shoes: Cannondale ST1000

dry roads AND sunshine? where am I?

Tuesday Aug 29, 2006 #

Bike - Road (commute - 195) 48:30 [3] 19.0 km (2:33 / km)
rhr:45 slept:7.5 weight:76.7kg shoes: Cannondale ST1000

getting very dark in the AM. May have to invest in lights in order to get to work on time. Took the shortest route in along 195.

Bike - Road (commute) 58:24 [3] 25.0 km (2:20 / km)
shoes: Cannondale ST1000

rainy ride home along the standard route - North River, Crandalls etc... actually a fairly pleasant ride home with new brakes giving more confidence in stopping. Need to adjust them a tad more though..

Sunday Aug 27, 2006 #

Bike - Road (commute) 1:04:22 [3] 27.5 km (2:20 / km)
rhr:46 slept:8.0 weight:75.7kg shoes: Cannondale ST1000

more or less the same as yesterdays return home - Sugar Hill, Birch Grove, Wrights Orchard - had planned to cross S. Willington and come in via Cedar Swamp, but took a turn too early (it was the one that didn't go up) and wound up back on 32 near the old emissions testing station. Took the main route in from there.

Bike - Road (commute) 55:00 [3] 19.0 km (2:54 / km)
shoes: Cannondale ST1000

rainy, cold commute home. Took the shortest option, even though it meant riding with the idiots in cars... Really harsh scraping sound from the rear brake, so rode home using just the front - meaning really slowly as neither brake is terribly effective in the rain.

I'll try to pick up new pads tomorrow...

Bike - Road (commute - 195) 45:00 [3] 19.0 km (2:22 / km)
rhr:52 slept:8.0 weight:75.3kg shoes: Cannondale ST1000

felt really crappy this AM - headache and sore neck/shoulders. Took some ibuprofen and hit the road. Roads really wet, lots of puddles... since it was Saturday AM, I figured the traffic would be light and took 195, wrong... lots of traffic but mostly well behaved... felt somewhat better by the time I got to work, still a bit of a headache though..

Bike - Road (commute) 1:06:50 [3] 27.25 km (2:27 / km) +540m 2:14 / km
shoes: Cannondale ST1000

home via 32, Wrights Orchard, Birch Grove, Sugar Hill. Nice ride, 70ish, overcast but roads dry

14/20

Bike - Road (commute) 59:05 [3] 23.5 km (2:31 / km)
rhr:46 slept:8.5 weight:77.1kg shoes: Cannondale ST1000

overcast, took Goose Lane, Brigham Tavern, Pink Ravine variation.

about a half dozen cows roaming the narrow dirt of Ravine Road - apparently couldn't figure out how to get back into the field on either side of the road. Plenty of room to maneuver the bike, but had to wait for 4 SUV types that were waiting for the cows to move, which they apparently felt no real need to do. Felt more like Laramie than Mansfield...

Bike - Road (commute) 1:02:21 [3] 23.5 km (2:39 / km)
shoes: Cannondale ST1000

rain stopped, still wet and humid, home via the same Ravine, Brigham Tavern, Goose Lane route. Move-in day on campus, so it took at least 5-6 minutes to get away from the dorms, plus roads were wet so I was quite conservative riding downhills. A pleasant ride though...

13/19

Bike - Road (commute) 57:28 [3] 25.0 km (2:18 / km) +400m 2:08 / km
rhr:43 slept:7.0 weight:78kg shoes: Cannondale ST1000

nice day... nothing special

Bike - Road (coomute - home) 54:50 [3] 25.0 km (2:12 / km) +400m 2:02 / km
shoes: Cannondale ST1000

gorgeous afternoon, pushed the pace a bit, tried to spin in slightly higher gears when not climbing. I think this may be a PR for the standard commute route door-2-door. Feeling the burn on the hills though...

Friday Aug 18, 2006 #

Note
rhr:46 slept:7.0 weight:76.2kg (rest day)

Going up to the Whites to do some backpacking w/ Jon & Jackson tomorrow, decided not to ride this AM, though in retrospect I probably should have.

Bike - Road (commute) 57:57 [3] 25.0 km (2:19 / km) +400m 2:09 / km
shoes: Cannondale ST1000

gorgeous sunrise this AM. Felt pretty good on whole ride, about 3 minutes faster that yesterday

rhr:46 slept:7.5 weight:78kg shoes: Cannondale ST1000

nice morning, 60ish. Feeling rather sluggish in the beginning though.

Got my watch fixed, so now rather than logging this as an hour, its an hour and 54 seconds - woohoo!!!

Bike - Road (commute - bald hill) 1:00:56 [3] 24.5 km (2:29 / km) +500m 2:15 / km
shoes: Cannondale ST1000

commute home, great weather - went over bald hill - short, really steep climb, a little shorter as the crow flies, but a nicer route (once you mentally get past the hill - climbs about 80m over 800m)

Tuesday Aug 15, 2006 #

Hiking (Shafran Conservation Area) 45:00 [1] 2.5 km (18:00 / km)
shoes: Kumasi GTX

Nice litte conservation area off Eaton Road. Nice rolling outer loop and I suspect it comes fairly close to some backyards on Browns Bridge. If I can discretely figure out how to get to it from my side, it might make a nice little trail loop to run from the house - down SLR a half mile, then into the woods for a rolling trail loop... Better than the dirt road anyway...

shoes: Cannondale ST1000

nice morning, quads still very sore - more than they should be.... ride home should be interesting...

Bike - Road (commute) 1:00:00 [3] 25.0 km (2:24 / km) +400m 2:13 / km
shoes: Cannondale ST1000

sore quads still, though more noticeable when spinning, less so when mashing up hills. I wonder whether it might be due to dehydration from Wednesday's hike - Hayden killed his water early on, then begged off both of my bottles which I am sure left me short on fluids

Hiking (Mt Mansfield) 7:00:00 [2] 7.0 mi (1:00:00 / mi) +1000m 41:33 / mi
shoes: Adidas Response Trail XI

Long hike with the family - Underhill SP, up halfway house trail, along ridge including subway, then down Laura Cowles trail. Lots of rock scrambling - especially on the Subway trail which they seem to have re-routed - I don't recall it being this technical or exposed 16 years ago - had to physically carry the kids in a couple spots to get them up some areas.

Although the mileage isn't much, it was a long day and my quads were sore by the end of the day.

dark @ 5:45, real dark... over bald hill then rain & thunder moved right in. Actually a fairly comfortable, wet ride, except the glasses were useless and it was hard to see the road...

Bike - Road (commute) 1:00:00 [3] 25.0 km (2:24 / km) +400m 2:13 / km
shoes: Cannondale ST1000

warm - hi 80's - but definitely drier than this AM (rain) or the past few days of oppresive humidity. Stopped halfway home to swim with the kids at Crandalls and bask a bit, then finish up the ride home...

7/9

weight:77.1kg shoes: Cannondale ST1000

very hot, slow ride home. Downhills were fairly refreshing, but there just weren't enough of those to make the ride enjoyable...

Tuesday Aug 1, 2006 #

Bike - Road (Lake & back) 25:00 [3] 7.5 km (3:20 / km)
shoes: Trail-a-bike

Bike - Road (Errands) 1:15:00 [3] 30.0 km (2:30 / km) +500m 2:18 / km
weight:79.4kg shoes: Cannondale ST1000

Rode to Tolland Bike (chain degreaser and spare tube), then up to Pats Power Equip (sheared mower deck bolt yesterday), then across town to Vernon to Phelps to check on repairs for pellet stove (they weren't even open), back home along SLR. Warm & humid, but not bad when actually moving - however, whenever I stopped, the sweat just started to pour off of me... ick...
