The best my former Wisconsinite frostbite toes and fingers can do on a winter bike ride these days is about 90 min at feels like 35 degrees. I could probably press it to almost 2 hours, but those days you took it too far in the cold add up. 🥶

Joined the Panache Nation club. Big fans of their bike kit designs, they do some fun events together and now I have a good winter training goal.

Sometimes I think there’s such a fine line between wooden legs or feeling no chain on a bike, the only way to know is to throw a leg over and turn the pedals. 🚴🏽‍♂️💨

You promised to return the thanksgiving food container today. 👀

I’m not disappointed. 💁‍♂️

You’ve been kidnapped. The characters from the last TV show you watched are trying to rescue you. Who’s coming to save you?

The great thing about being a masters aged cyclist is you can turn down the chilly early ride because you distinctly remember a similar day where you were so cold you couldn’t physically put the key in the front door when you got home. Been there. Done that. 🥶

At work, bit thinking about that new Factor Monza. 🚴🏽‍♂️💨

Also Coffee Zwifting is a thing. You just need pick the right moment to coast and sip. Pinky’s up! ☕️🚴🏽‍♂️💨
Even though coffee maker was pre-programmed and I was technically awake at 6:51am, the best I can do for morning Zwift is on the bike by 7:40am, and spin for 45min. 🚴🏽‍♂️💨

You’d think I’d get the day off cuz we won a CMA Award. 🤠🤷‍♂️ Someone’s gotta make the radio magic I guess.

You’d think with decades of experience at some point I’d master cycling, leaving only fitness, chance and luck as obstacles. But Sunday I completely dressed wrong and was miserably cold for a 2 hour ride. A few weeks ago I brought food I’ve never tried before to a race. I simply think I got lazy. 🤷‍♂️

Did my first winter Zwift, an Unlocked Stage 1 race. 13th of 28. My racing score ⬇️ 119 points since end of spring. 😢 BUT raced well. Stayed with front, till tailed off on hill. Settled in & sprinted to win the bunch. The guy I beat’s racing score was 57 points higher than mine. So there’s hope! 🚴🏽‍♂️💨

Spends hundreds on athletic nutrition “fueling” bike rides. Does 3 hours of solid yard work on a tall black coffee and cinnamon roll. 🍩☕️

Bikey friend at the brew pub telling me how they visited Belgium, France and The Netherlands, rented an Audi and got 3 speed camera tickets trying to spectate the Tour of Flanders, Scheldeprijs and Paris Roubaix races. Worth it. Haha.

Was going to install the Zwift cog and click, but had a second thought. Is it really any better than your regular shifters and cassette? 🤷‍♂️🚴🏽‍♂️💨

Now that’s the “Spirit of Gravel”

A French cyclist survived for three days after a horrendous 130-foot fall into a ravine, kept alive by the bottles of red wine he had in his shopping bag, police said.
