Bicycle Diaries
30 years riding, 15 years writing
Warmer weather
This afternoon, the temperature went above 60, so it was time to ride. It’s not that I can’t ride in the cold, it’s that I’d rather not, for fear of catching the flu that’s been going around these parts. By the end of next month, I’ll have no choice but to ride in the cold, but I’m hoping that my body will have gotten used to the winter germs by then.
MTB: distance 20.99 miles, average speed 13.3 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.
