Take a Break 😴
I decided to take a break from riding today. For one thing, I was a little concerned over the weather; and for another, my head felt all stuffed up.
But why does the weather have to get so iffy just when it’s time to push for rides of 60 miles? RAGBRAI is looming ever closer; and I don’t need to let my training lapse now.
Even when the forecast says T-storms are most likely from early afternoon, I feel uneasy about them — even when I ride at 7:00 am! I wish I could take a break from bad weather.
Weekend Rides 🚲
I hope I won’t have to resort to a chair workout for my weekend rides. Or the trainer; or other off-bike fitness measures, either. For a workout, there’s nothing like an outdoor ride!
It looks like tomorrow’s ride to the salvage store will be OK; and perhaps Sunday’s long ride. If storms prevent my doing a long ride on Sunday, I can do it another day.
It’s still hard for me to break away from the pre-retirement mindset of doing the week’s long ride on Sunday! I can move weekend rides to mid-week rides if I have to. That’s a huge perk of not having to go to work. It makes me wonder how I managed in my pre-retirement days.

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!
