Day 12 of 21
1:22
Decided to finally drag myself out of bed at dark o’clock and get a good ride in before work. Wednesdays works out good I don’t have any standing meetings until a little later.
Did 2 efforts on segments and tied my previous PRs on both. Didn’t push too much more since I basically was riding fasted which I typically don’t do and I didn’t want to suddenly bonk out.
Nearly ran into two different herd of deer at that hour have to stay alert for them but it was nice to ride the roads with very minimal traffic.
After the drive to work definitely feeling it in the legs.

how do you like 29+? I always wanted to give that a shot on my fat bike

I like it. I prefer it over fat tires unless there is snow on the ground. Ride is like 27.5+, but taller feeling.

Road ride with a buddy that doesn't ride too much. We were supposed to head out at 930, but the rain came back and we didn't get out until 11 when the skies cleared up a little. Looked like it might start raining again a few times, but we ended up staying dry the whole time.

Is your bike a Stormchaser? Looks really slick in that color with the Brooks saddle.

18. Forgot to post up yesterday. Fixed the tire on the road rig and took it for a short spin. Uneventful, but very sweaty. Legs felt like Pb.

Day 15/21 - giving back to local trails.
Check out my activity on Strava: https://strava.app.link/8In5pRvozBb
Yes, my moving time is less than an hour. But I spent 11 minutes stopping to pick up debris and saw a tree. My total time is just over an hour.

Yessir. Saddle is a Selle Anatomica. They are soooo comfy I put one on my Mukluk & Diverge too.
Is Frenchtown beginner friendly and will it be rideable on Saturday?

I'd say yes to beginners except one spot on red at the parking lot (steep). Some climbing but overall similar to Twisties of 6-mile
It was pretty dry today even with the passing showers. If we don't getting more rain it will absolutely be fine
Thank you. I am ok with going uphill, steep downhill I am still working on.

Oh, had me fooled! I see it is a bit sleeker than a Brooks. I’ll have to try one.
