2011 Ride #17

Felt much better on the bike today; not great … not even good … but better than yesterday, which isn’t that difficult to accomplish. Struggled up Emigration to the first switchback at Pinecrest, then along Wasatch over Parley’s Way. Stopped at Barbacoa to grab a burrito (stuffed into my jersey pocket), then [...]

I kind of felt like the space shuttle Challenger today … I pretty much exploded immediately after launch. AvgHR 168bpm, MaxHR 184bpm … on the flats, while doing a whopping 15 mph. The absolute lowest my heart rate got was 143bpm …

The bright side is that I finished the loop, [...]

I Think I CANyons Benefit Ride

Got the following email from local Utah rider Alex Rock this afternoon. Seems like a great cause, so reposting in the hopes of generating some interest for the ride.

For those that don’t already know, I am planning a charity bicycle ride this summer to raise money for the Fourth Street Clinic (an organization that [...]

TMAC Memorial Crit

Looking forward to seeing more info being posted about this; not only because it’s practically in my back yard (you know, if I had a back yard), but for whom it’s honoring.

1st Annual Terry McGinnis Memorial Criterium

I wonder where exactly the course will be … I hope it’s the triangle formed by 45th [...]

Emigration to Pinecrest. Felt like crap; my lungs were NOT cooperating today in the slightest, even after stopping to take a couple hits off the inhaler.

I did get a nice waffle hand-up from my friend Waffles, as she and another friend drove [...]

2009 Ride #37

View Larger Map

Felt much better today than Friday; most likely because it wasn’t as hot … and because I didn’t have to deal with multiple wasp stings. Emigration to Pinecrest, but instead of home via 20th East, I came back along Wasatch. Had to stop at Canyon because my shifting was off. You’d think [...]
