Text of the page (random words):
now and cold and i will admit it was scary at first it took time to learn how to deal with riding in freezing weather and my beginning attempt was slightly disastrous but i got the hang of it and by the end of winter i had successfully ridden in 18f by the time this winter rolled around i was raring to go i couldn t wait for a chance to ride in even colder temperatures and set a new personal best but this winter has been a warm one and subzero temperatures have been a rarity with half of february already past i had begun to give up hope of having the opportunity to break last year s record then this weekend a cold front swooped in with the power of a mighty eagle when i got out of work on saturday afternoon the temperature had fallen to 15 that got me to thinking what if the temperature continued to drop overnight like it often does sure enough the forecast for sunday morning was 21 i went to sleep with butterflies in my stomach half from apprehension and half from excitement when morning came i would get my chance maybe my only chance of the season to ride in super cold weather oh man was i really ready for this waking up to a cold apartment felt like a good sign i checked the weather 26 and still dropping i dressed more carefully then i have ever dressed in my life wool socks base layer thick layer windproof layer boots earmuffs balaclava goggles helmet thin gloves thick gloves once everything was precisely in place i carried my bike down the stairs locked the door behind me plunged my hands into my bar mitts and set off down the road the first three miles were spent mentally checking and re checking every part of my body to make sure it was still warm as faint colors started to appear in the eastern sky signaling the beginning of sunrise i began to relax and enjoy the ride i listened to the squeaky sounds of the cold snow under my tires i saw comforting puffs of smoke rising from every home i smelled the tangy sweet scent of silage hay and cows as i passed farms i felt the cold air rush in to fill my lungs as dawn continued to paint the sky i began to feel an inexpressible joy come over me oh what a day to be alive i pedaled on warm and happy well mostly warm every part of me felt fine except for my lower back and butt they were freezing right off i had made a tactical error one of the layers i was using was too short to provide full coverage and the cold air was seeping right through my jacket this turn of events was unexpected and slightly amusing i found that getting out of the saddle to pedal got me feeling warm once more so i spent the rest of the ride alternating between standing and sitting down as i pulled into the parking lot of my church i felt an overwhelming rush of endorphins and with it complete elation fifteen miles in an hour and thirty five minutes at 28f good times share this tweet email a link to a friend opens in new window email share on tumblr like loading posted in bike ride uncategorized tagged

to my brother s basketball game so when i started the morning with an aching brain i was not very pleased if there is one thing i absolutely cannot stand it is the throbbing pain of a headache there are people i know that live with chronic headaches and migraines and i simply don t know how they do it thankfully i rarely have headaches and when i do have one it can always be traced back to one of three causes sickness sleep deprivation or dehydration i felt healthy and i have been sleeping well so the cause of my headache was surely dehydration mild dehydration is pretty easy to fight against just add water for the rest of the morning and into the early afternoon i made sure i drank plenty of fluids and sure enough my nagging headache disappeared then it was time to leave my sister in law s house and ride to my brother s basketball game i had only been biking for a few miles when i realized that in my haste to banish my headache i had overcompensated slightly in my intake of fluids for the next thirty miles i stopped at every convenience store i could find to use their restroom my habit is to buy something if i stop to use a store s restroom it seems only fair but yesterday i did duck out of one store without purchasing anything i guess i will have to go back and make it up to them sometime but other than the frequent stops and the misfortune of losing a glove somewhere along the way the ride was amazing i have been along this road plenty of times in a car but this was my first time on a bike there was a category 3 hill to climb which was exciting to me because although i live in a hilly area we don t have many long climbs there was also a plentiful sprinkling of little rolling hills on this road which are always fun to go up and down my family and i had a great time watching my brother play he always seems to have fun on the court and he played well last night unfortunately the game did not go our way and the opposing team won by a single point despite the ultimate loss it was a well fought exciting game then it was time to head home i must admit i cheated i biked to my brother s game but i rode back in the van with my family because they are awesome and willing to give me a free ride when i decide i need to sleep before work i checked on mapmyride i climbed 1 644 feet and descended 2 121 feet so i clearly got the easy end of the deal there was a category 2 hill right before i reached the school where my brother was playing i coasted down that hill into the city knowing that i would not have to climb up it that night honestly i felt a bit guilty it was a wonderful route to ride so i have made a promise with myself i will re ride this route and next time i will bike home share this tweet email a link to a friend opens in new window

normal lately i had some great bike rides in january but all of them were on familiar roads mostly for the sake of transportation i have been itching to try out a new route and just have a day to meander around the countryside when i woke up this morning i knew that today was the day finding a route to ride feeding and walking my dogs getting all my gear together and eating breakfast seemed to take me forever it never ceases to amaze me that when i need to leave for work in the morning it only takes me a half hour to get ready but on my days off it can take me a few hours before i finally drag myself out the door but eventually i found myself on my bike heading down the road it was a nice slightly sunny morning and the temperature was predicted to stay between 25 30 degrees throughout the day within a few miles i was pedaling down country lanes that i have rarely if ever been down before it is great fun to explore new roads never knowing what will be around the next bend or over the next hill after an hour and a half i took a quick stop at a convenience store to have a snack and refill my water bottle going back outside i felt rather chilled and even after ten minutes of biking my body wouldn t warm up i hadn t brought along extra clothes which now seemed like a grave mistake oh great i thought to myself you are in a pickle now i pedaled furiously down the road trying to warm up worrying that the reminder of my ride would be spent with cold toes and freezing fingers but then i saw the hill it was a great big old hill and i let out a sigh of relief there was no way i still feel chilled at the top of that hill my route took me through four state forests where there were trees trees and more trees i don t think i have ever seen so many chipmunks and squirrels in my life they were everywhere chattering or darting across the roads it was so quiet and calm in the woods a perfect place to think and pray after stopping again for a bathroom break and more water i came across my favorite road of the ride it was a dirt road covered in ice my studded tires seemed so delighted to sink their teeth into the icy surface but then i came to a long downhill stretch of road where the ice was mushy and mixed with mealy snow my tires could not find anything to grip onto as the bike started to slide feverishly down the hill i thought i was about careen wildly off the road and crash but i reminded myself relax trust the bike don t you dare touch the brakes once we were safely at the bottom of the hill i let out a wild laugh i could feel the adrenalin rush for the next several miles before long my ride was almost over and i felt tired and happy having accomplished my mission for the day it is wonderful to know that there are so many roads in my local area that are just waiting for me to explore them share this tweet email a link to a friend opens in new window email share on tumblr like loading posted in bike ride tagged biking cycling 20 replies how long does it take a cautious person to learn how to ride no handed posted on january 19 2016 by bribikes 24 fourteen months ago i started this blog back then i had no bike handling savvy whatsoever but then winter came and it taught me some valuable lessons i learned how to ride in snow and more importantly how keep my body relaxed even in tense situations in the spring i bought my road bike and the first thing i had to learn was how to wrangle my water bottle in and out of it s cage without falling over in a heap not to mention the struggle of actually drinking water while on the move it took some time but i did get very comfortable riding one handed logically the next step was teaching myself to ride without using either hand for balance i practiced and practiced and practiced this skill over the summer without ever mastering it one day i happened to watch a video online and it mentioned getting comfortable having either hand off the handlebars before progressing to no hands at all ah ha i had been solely using my right hand to retrieve my water bottle while my dominant left hand steadied the bike so i took time to get comfortable with taking my left hand off the bars for extended periods of time by now it was late fall and i switched to using my mountain bike for some reason i found the mountain bike even harder to balance no handed than my road bike on a rainy day my handlebar covers started sliding off for whatever reason i grabbed the squishy ends it was perfect the flexible ends of the handlebar covers gave me enough control over the bike to assure my cautious side that i was safe but still forced me to balance the bike using my body i became more confident taking my hands off the bars but i was still unable to jump over the hurdle of guiding my bike without any hands i only rode no handed when i could keep a perfectly straight line until today that is this morning was bright sunny and cold one of those days when i decide that winter should never ever end as a bonus there was a slight tailwind helping me out as i pedaled down the road i was singing and my hands wouldn t stay still at one point i realized that my hands had not been on the handlebars for a long time and that my weight was balanced perfectly over the bicycle without them it had clicked for the rest of the ride i giggled uncontrollably every time i took my hands off and guided my bike without them i may or may not have squealed at the top of my lungs i am actually doing it after working so long on this skill having it finally come together feels absolutely magical

january 14 2016 by bribikes 11 the past few days have been tough for me emotionally this morning when my alarm went off i didn t want to get out of bed at all but i can be a sneaky person i had a feeling that i wouldn t feel like doing much today so last night i called up my sister in law and told her i would come up for a visit in the morning i was stuck even though i felt like staying home all day and doing nothing i dragged myself out the door and onto my bike as i headed out of town and started climbing hills i met a wicked crosswind that blew soft new snow everywhere guess what that means snow dunes this bike ride was starting to seem like a brilliant plan there is nothing i love better than wildly destroying snow drifts that dare to place themselves within my reach mile after mile i grinned as i saw new stretches of pristine dunes begging for me to plow through them after decimating all the innocent mounds of snow that i could possibly find i arrived at my sister in law s home entering her house is one of the best things ever because my two nieces and two nephews always greet me with heartwarming excitement we had a lot of fun together and i even was able to take them outside which was wonderful i love playing in the snow with little ones mid afternoon after eating a few chocolate cookies my sister in law s cookies are the best ever i had to leave and they waved out the window as i started biking down the road it was snowing very hard but the wind had died down massive flakes floated silently to the ground snow is always beautiful but these extra fluffy extra big snowflakes made my ride home something special i did end up crying during the ride however yesterday my older sister left the country and she won t be back for three years i am very excited and happy for her but man it really hit me today how much i am going to miss her being able to spend time with her for the past six months has been so wonderful it is hard to say goodbye but i can t stay too morose when i out on a bike ride when i see the beautiful world all around me i remember that god who created it all is with me his love will help me through any sadness and hardship no matter how big or small by the time i reached home darkness had fallen a sense of joy swept over me the day had been full of precious moments and big smiles i am glad i decided to get out of bed share this tweet

errands on my bike in town a lady that i know well stopped me and questioned my sanity saying that no one should be on the roads especially on a bike her words made me pause should i really go out on
