Woodstreamers 20


Sorry, no pictures today, so why not promote a local business?

So Jeff, Jen, Christy and I took a nice 20 through Waterford today. Jen got to use her new bike and Christy managed to twist up her back rim. No worry - I fixed it. LOL

Anyway did about 20 - and the Mrs., god bless her, kept up.

Im ready for the B ride. Bring on the 30.

Jackson/Raritan 16.5 with Jeff and Christy


Nice ride today! We take Atco Rd. till the end, plow into Jackson, past the raceway until Atsion Road. Make a U-bee then double back to Tremont. Tremont to Raritan and back to Atco Ave. We then hit a pretty stiff head wind till we got back to Cooper Folley. Im really impressed with Christy's new pace - WOW!
Most of the way through was great, and right before we hit Cooper Folley, my seat POPPED! The threads gave out on the seat clamp. I ignored it until i got back. Tightened it up and now it seems fine. Oh well!

Raritan 10 at Slow Pace


After buying the new trek for the Mrs., i figured i'd take her out for a trial run. It's not her speed that bothers me the most, its her fear of the road. Im sure she'll do better on future rides, so im hanging in there. Her uphill pace decreased, but that will come in time. Signaling and etiquette is something we're both learning, so that's taking time as well.

I'll report back after today's ride.
