Bicycle Diaries
30 years riding, 15 years writing
Getting there
Feeling a bit better spinning the cranks.
What’s helping me get back into bike shape is that I’m also walking a few miles with my daughter before I go for my ride. I find that I’m not hurting as much because my muscles have already warmed up and I can push a bigger gear from the start.
MTB: distance 13.05 miles, average speed 13.0 mph.
Charlotte, NC
Spent 10 years in Charlotte, a block away from an entrance to the McAlpine Creek Greenway.
Switched to a mountain bike from the road bikes I was accustomed to riding for 15 years.
The time spent on these trails was most appreciated.
