Sunday and Monday – Don’t let the girls join you after 25 miles
So I had promised my GF that i’d go for a bike ride with her Sunday – problem was I wasn’t going to start a 40 mile ride at 5-6 pm. So I got 25 miles in and then ended up taking a 100 minute break before we did the other 13 miles. 🙁 Man my legs were killing at the end of this ride!
Monday I headed out for a quick 15 mile ride along the canal just to get my legs spinning!

Join us in the MMR Tour de France Challenge! with us for #HacktheHeat #DefconBikeRide!
Hey everyone! How is your riding coming along? As Bruce and I have been talking strategy for longer rides as well as tracking our rides — we came across this tour de cure challenge — over on MapMyRide.
This is your invitation to join our group to compete against each other and other teams to win some prizes as well as just have a good time riding while the Tour de France is going on. It will end a few weeks before our bike ride in Vegas.
You don’t need to ride crazy miles — it seems as everything is proportional – but you do need to get on your bike! We have a team registered over at MapMyride. Go here to join us! (search for team “Cycle OverRide”) You will need a iPhone or Android to map your rides.
Let us know if you have any questions! We hope to get at least 5-10 people on our team!

Motorcycles and Bicycles
Got passed by over 300 motorcycles during this ride. Apparently there was a rally somewhere and I was riding the course. Made what should have been a very peaceful ride very, very loud.

It’s Friday Friday, Better Climb Up on Friday…
Just over a week till the Masochistic Metric. Got the riders packet in email overnight. They seem pretty serious about how many climbs there are and how steep some of them are. Uh.. yeah, I’m sure I’ll be ready. Got a good ride in this morning, will put in some big miles tomorrow, then taper till the event. The prep is pretty much all over now.
