Rode in 16mph winds with 20+mph gusts, thanks to the outer bands of Ike. I was whipped by mile 30, but got some energy thanks to the Clif Shot Bloks. Those things rok!! :) The most interesting part of this ride is that the wind was always in our face, no matter what direction we [...]

Took the bike out last night (a Guru Flite if you must know) and helped a friend mark up some brand new road! Wahoo! Ended up riding about 12 or so miles which was good considering how late I left work. We marked the road every 1/2 mile so now I can [...]
