Spent most of last week commuting by bike. 27 mile round trip. Did that 3 times last week. Chilly, but not too bad. Sunny and cold is pretty nice for a bike ride. Should be able to do that all this week, too.
I decided to participate in something called the Icy Bike Winter Commuting Challenge. Essentially a somewhat informal group united by their intent to bike commute through the winter. I'm keeping in touch with them on their Strava and Facebook pages, and they have a log online to keep track of everyone's rides. Seems like it's based nearby, maybe in Boulder or Longmont, so there are a lot of locals participating. I think I'm pretty well-equipped for winter commuting, but I've still got some things to figure out over the winter. We'll see how it goes when it gets really cold.
Recent stuff:
- Tuesday: 27 mile bike commute
- Wednesday: 27 mile bike commute
- Friday: 27 mile bike commuet
- Today: 2 1/2-hours on the trainer, Spinervals 30.0 - Muscular Endurance Plus. Managed to increase my average speed for this workout from 17.3 mph to 17.7 mph since last time I did it a couple weeks ago.
Don't feel like weighing myself tonight. Going to bed.
