November Mileage

Decent mileage finally.  Nothing wow-inducing, certainly.  Just a nice solid month with regular rides.  The thing I was most happy with was notching 319 with minimal longer rides.  The longest loop was around 45 miles mid-month.  On the downside, that means that I haven’t ridden “long” in a while - hmmm…. quite a while… - but it means that I ended up riding 21 days out of 30.  Consistency is a good thing.

It hurt a bit, too.  A little stiffer here and there and a few muscle aches. Regular riding puts a bit different stress on the system, and I’m still screaming home on the commute at a pretty good clip most nights. (That whole shorter ride/higher effort thing.) I’m feeling better when I do have to go for more throttle.  But, then one weekend of marginal weather, I just couldn’t raise the gumption to go a-ridin’.  Had to honor that, too.  Yoga still keeping things loose and restored.

Also wore my last Pasela down to the threads - which I only realized by flatting while on a lunchtime errand.  Danged fenders tend to obscure the visual check.  But, I do like wearing stuff out.

Bikey Miles in 2010 so far: 3768
