Feb 10

Solid day on the bike.  Up early for the climb up 21st street, a classic among riders here.  During normal hours it's not unusual to see guys from the olympic training center doing repeats here.  From my house it's 5.75 miles to the top with 1000 feet of climbing.  Took me just a few seconds under 40 minutes to do it on the fat bike this morning.

Took the long way home from work, another 16 miles.  33 miles on the day.  Not bad for a Wednesday.

Looks like my boycott of Air Force athletics has produced results.  Announcement came out today that the Santa Fe trial will be open late spring/early summer.  Hopefully it will open early enough to give me time to get in shape for Kanza.

Stout month rolls on.

That Samuel Smith stout is a favorite stout of mine.

Don't you mean 26th Street?

Yes, 26th Street. 21st isn't as impressive of a climb, but there is a cool bar at the top and a great dog park on the other side.
