Dogday

Did a little Dam Ride this Sunday morning, making it home by nine, just as Mr. Sun was breaking through the June Gloom, as the natives call it. I call it a nice cool ride. Absolutely NOTHING outstanding happened on this ride.

No road rage.

No goofy pedestrians.

No loose headsets.

I was a little cranky at the lack of a bike lane on the newly redone part of Prospect in Santee, but what'cha gonna do?

I DID climb Jackson Dr. in the the 36-24 combination, that is, 36t chainwheel, 24t cog on the back. So that was pretty outstanding!

There were a godawful lot of dog-walkers out today. Especially at LM. I bet I saw 60 of 'em. Good think I didn't start the DWPP today!


Ride Stats:

25.03 miles in 2 hours 3 minutes 16 seconds.

Week Stats:

Schwinn: 25.03 miles
Jamis: 30.95 miles

Total 55.98 miles

Year To Date Stats

Schwinn odometer 6/17/07: 6,469
Schwinn odometer start: 6,046
Schwinn year to date: 423

Jamis odometer 6/17/07: 2,904
Jamis odometer start: 2,273
Jamis year to date: 631

Total miles year to date: 1,054



Seems to be an average amount of miles, so far this half-year. Since I will be working this summer (I am full of hope!), and I'll HAVE to drive, I won't have the traditional Summer Mornings to build up the mileage. Alas.

Ran across this little movie on the Fraser Cycles site (by way of the San Diego Fixed blog) which was shot at Lake Murray, I see.

Happy Belated Father's Day btw. Sounds like you had a pretty good ride on Sunday. Sorry that I haven't written lately but been dealing with Toshi's health issues and then Jacob got came down with a virus on Thursday. He missed his last day of preschool but we were able to visit the teachers after class was out. Thought Jacob was doing better yesterday but his fever came back so I took him into the doctor's. Left ear infection! This is his 3rd case in approx 4 months! He's been missing his swim lessons this week but if his fever goes away, he can start them per the doctor's orders but I wouldn't hold my breathe. With the way things are going lately, nothing has been going as planned. Just in a crabby mood today and feeling frustrated. On that not, time to check on the lad.
