Forget the Score 🎼
Forget the score. No matter what the notes say, I’ll have to play it by ear for the next few days. There’s no point in making a plan for a ride, when I’m not even sure that weather conditions will let me ride!
I was able to do what I planned yesterday; namely, some Tabata intervals. Or to be more exact, Tabata intervals my way. I did the 20 seconds hard/10 seconds coasting thing; but I can’t generate as much power as a racing cyclist in training. Moreover, I didn’t know what FTP meant, let alone what my own FTP is; and do I really need to know?
Stormy Days 🌀
We’re in for some stormy days, thanks to Francine. It’s sure not the time to go out there and try to fly a drone; not even to gather weather data.
This morning it was only sprinkling; and I decided to go ride the hybrid around the park a few times. Might as well get in a few miles while I can! I would have stayed out longer, but was getting too hungry for it. That’s when it’s time to forget the score. No point in letting myself bonk!
Last night I put out the trash for pick-up, thinking that today was Wednesday. Well, it’s only Tuesday; and a Google search elicited the information that tomorrow’s trash pick-up is cancelled. Stormy days make weird things happen.
So far not much is happening, but heavy rain is possible this afternoon and tonight; and we could have tropical storm conditions by tomorrow morning. I suppose I won’t be able to ride. 😞

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!
