kengrI've been worrying since late last month about the annual inspection of the apartments. Because of the "remodel" back in Sept I've had more stuff than usual in boxes, and since we have a new manager who is a bit of a pain in the ass, I was expecting it to be bad. she was actually pretty good about it.
But while I was (slowly) getting things straightened out, I haven't been riding my bike.
And the WNBR is Saturday. So I'm trying to make up for lost time.
Went out to hit a nearby geocache (GC5T5TA) Found it without too much trouble then tried yet another stab at one that has ben confounding me for years (GC39RJB) . Failed again on that one. Gonna have to ask for a hint.
On the way back, I saw a big bag of beer cans sitting at the curb and swung back. There was a woman just coming out of the door and I asked if they were just there for the taking. She said they were. And that she usually had a bag everuy day or so.
So I snagged it and hit tnhe bottle return at Albertsons before going home (it's literally next door, so no biggie).
Got $3.90. Gonna have to make a point of swinging by here on my rides. It's right on my preferred route home from points west...
Bike stats:
total dstance 6.16 miles (I'd only been planning on 3-5)
max speed: 13.6 mph
avg moving speed 5.7 mph
total moving time 1hour, 5 min.
Not bad at all.
Eeven so, the WNBR is going to be a killer. Suppsed to hit 99 or 100Satyrday. And oit won't have cooled off *that* much by 8 pm.
The folks who tried to do the naked 100 km (riding in all the naked rides that day) are going to *die* unless they are well prepared.
