Parsnip Totin Jack ★ Posted July 21, 2017 Share #1 Posted July 21, 2017 Another morning ride. Roll out at 5:30. Daniel, Mike, Squirelly Pete and I. 27 miles, 1:28, 18.3 avg, 789 feet climbed. We rode back roads thru Reston, Bird Foot to Stuart Mill, past Sasha's house, who can't ride with us anymore because of two-year old twins and a newborn. Hopefully he'll get back on his bike and join us soon. Iced coffee at the caffe, shower, change, pack lunch and at my desk by 8:00. What you got today? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Longjohn ★ Posted July 22, 2017 Share #7 Posted July 22, 2017 2.39 miles in the kayak while fishing. Different lake, waste of time, crowded. I caught stumps and seaweed. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Digital_photog ★ Posted July 22, 2017 Share #9 Posted July 22, 2017 19 mile tandem ride to supper with 2 other couples from Ohio at the HOOTS Shipshewana Tandem Weekend. Ate way too much at the family style meal. Excellent food and pie. Then back in Shipshewana for a nice visit and getting to know a couple from Wisconsin. !3 mph with WoD_P Took it easy so we didn't hurt her bad knee. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groupw Posted July 22, 2017 Share #10 Posted July 22, 2017 6 mile round trip commute. 106 heat index on the ride home. Oh and the AC on my work car conked out about 70 miles away from town! Even if I hadn't had to take WoW to the airport, that was it for me today. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digital_photog ★ Posted July 22, 2017 Share #11 Posted July 22, 2017 WoD_P's knee did very well so we are hoping that the storms get out of here early so we can get a nice ride in tomorrow. Goal is to do about 27 mile round trip tomorrow. If we can start at the 8am scheduled time we should be able to do it. We will be leaving the Jeep at the half way point in case the knee bothers her or weather is bad. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is the name...that is all Squirelly Pete is in his 20's. Married with kids, one is due in September. He is full of testosterone and is always go go go. He got the Squirelly nickname from his tendency to be all over the place, pass on the right, ride too close, half wheel, contest every hill and sprint. He's improved but still sketchy to ride with. At one point I told him, g-dammit don't pass on my right. He's a wreck waiting to happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OKAY...train wreck...I have ripped in to more than one person who has passed me on a ride..one for sure a seasoned cyclist...the other on the MS150...don't know his skill level...but he sure got an ear full when he passed on my right!! Tell Squirelly Peat...he better clean up his act if he wants to live to see his kids become adults!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
