Easing Up 😮💨
The wind finally seems to be easing up. It’s about time! But I’m glad that I don’t have boils that need easing. That would be quite a problem.
This morning it was just 39 degrees; but I was able to make a trip to the salvage store. Despite the overcast skies, it didn’t rain. I found some new bars to try; but as they’re actually rather low in protein, I’d better save them as snacks rather than ride food.
As to my riding, the easing up has gone on long enough. I needed a bit of a break after the final months of 2024, when I was striving to hit 70K; but taking too long a break isn’t the best thing.
Back to Mileage 🛣️
It’s time to get back to mileage! I’m glad I’ve got my Garmin to help me keep track of things.
For a while I was doing short rides. The wind was enough to discourage me, with chill factors below freezing some days. There was also the the frequent threat of rain; and cold plus rain plus wind is a miserable combination!
Tomorrow morning the temperature should be in the mid-40s by the time I’m ready to ride; and they don’t expect any rain before early afternoon. Ergo I should be OK out there!

ABOUT ME
I began this website primarily as a way to present the story of how I accomplished a century ride on an adult tricycle. Other riders of adult trikes might want to know whether it’s possible. It sure is! You can read all about it in My Story.
I live in New Orleans; and retired in January 2023. More time for cycling!
