Sweet Apple Road

Delicious sounding ride that branches off from Dry Creek Road.    Not too hilly not much traffic.  Eventually joins Wolf Creek Road and then Cogswell Ave.  Now I need to ride to the end of Wolf  Creek.

Seddon Cemetery

Ride to Golf Course Road.  Continue to Seddon cemetery  and onward to the neighborhood of lake houses.  On the way home turned at the airport and took the back roads to Church Road and home.  Great fun workout.

Bpbtti bike shorts

These shorts were a welcome gift after riding in jeans and swim trunks for a month or two.  I was very happy to see the level of quality in these  shorts.  They have baseball stitching around a durable, quality pad.  Again in the elastic around the pants legs they use   Baseball stitching.  The fabric is breathable   Coolmax so you stay cool while riding.

I rode a couple of hours in 90 degree heat and they are flawless.  Great shorts!

Eureka!

Revisited Lincoln Fire Station area with lovely country roads Around the lakeshore.very fun.

Giro di May’s Bend

This is all hills start to finish.  Warmed up on Sunset Strip, a baby Zoncolan.  Then  May’s Bend and continuous saliscende for 30  minutes.  Exhausted.

Talladega

Talladega isn’t only famous for its speedway: I was born in the county 60 years ago.  Today I biked over to check it out.   Nice and dry and cooler than usual.  32 miles round trip.
