Here we go... Again.

This morning a layer of fog made the crisp and cool ride to the office neat. The Holdrege St. bike path overpass has been closed for the next couple of weeks. That was a small setback compared to what I was in store for at the office. I was given notice from my employee in Columbus. Turnover again means I'll be really busy the next couple of months and behind the wheel more than the handlebars. After work the Mrs. and I went for a spin on the Jamaica North to take in some of this week's perfect weather. Nothing like a ride to get the negatively out of your head. All told I ended up with 33.19 miles today.

Commute route improves.

The new bike path bridge Northwest of 27th and Capital Parkway and connecting trail are now open making the commute faster and safer. After riding to work and back we rode to the store giving me 23.71 miles today.

Labor Day hunt.

Our youngest and I joined my dad at Bunker Hill East of Hastings for some upland hunting. The weather was beautiful, the dogs were working great and they both shot well. We went home with 4 birds and some early season teal my dad got that morning off the Platte.

If I slowed down, would I lose my ballance?

I've worked 59 out of the last 60 days and am excited about being off tomorrow for Labor Day. Although it'd be nice to stay home and rest, we're planning another outdoor adventure.

The last few days all the biking I've got in was a couple of trips up the hill totaling 9.6 miles.

The Hwy. 34 Nacho Ride.

After the rains on Tuesday we thought we'd take the highway to Eagle and give those carbon ponies a chance to stretch their legs. It gave me 18.5 miles on Tuesday.

Been spotted around.

I have fallen behind on blogging, but I have been spotted with the wife on her new 2009 Trek FX 7.6 WSD from The Bike Rack while we rode the South Point loop, I worked the sign-up table at today's GPBC's Heatstroke 100 and I've taken a couple of trips up the hill this weekend. Togther I got another 17.6 miles.

Gravel Worlds 2011

I rode from 6am to noon in some mushy roads and mud, but it was a ton of fun and I felt great. I used my son's MTB and it worked well. I had to stop at noon to get back to Lincoln and ended the day with 51.4 miles.

Yum! Gravel for breakfast.

Councel and I met up before work to ride some gravel East of Lincoln this morning. Afterward I went on to the office racking up 35.3 miles for the day.

They just don't get it.

When it's this nice out it's a shame to drive. Give riding to work a try, you'll love it! I got 20.66 miles today commuting to work.

Aaarrrr!

Pirates are coming to Lincoln from all over for Saturday's annual 150 mile long Pirate Cycling League's Gravel Worlds race. In support of this weekend's race even the hobos that live under the 27th street overpass have their pirate flags hung from their antennas. Check out www.piratecyclingleague.blogspot.com for all the details.

I rode up the hill Sunday and to the office today for 25.51 miles.
