  • Today’s Ride to Work

    I rode the mountain bike to work today. I put the knobbies back on a few days ago, with the expectation of eventually hitting the trails soon. The knobbies were pretty slow, but I managed to get to cover the 6 miles to work in just under 30 minutes. On the way, I goofed around with my Flip video camera. The video below is from today’s ride.

    Chris, Greg, and I went riding after work. We me up at Peden Stadium and rode the HockHocking Adena Bike Path all the way to Robin’s Crossing in Nelsonville and back. We averaged over 17 mph for the 29 mile ride. I haven’t been riding much this summer, so it was great to get a really good ride in. Video recorded with my Flip Mino and pieced together with FlipShare.

  • A Practical Cyclist’s Winter Cycle Clothing Guidelines

    While it may be a bit early to be thinking about winter, we’ve recently had some temperatures in the low forties in the mornings. I’m planning on trying to keep cycling through the winter (mostly because I haven’t done much riding this summer). In preparation for winter riding, it helps to have the right clothes for the conditions. The Practical Cyclist has an awesome table of how to dress for the elements when cycling. The image, below, is taken from the post. Click the image for the full table, and make sure you check out the full post, linked below the image.

    I visited my brother last weekend and while I was there we went on a 20 mile ride around Franklin, TN. Here’s some clips of what we saw on the ride.
