Not bad....#75HARD DAY 23

#75HARD DAY 23 COMPLETE!!!



With that being said, I'm still going for 10pm tomorrow. I feel pretty good that I finished around 11:30pm. I hoping by day 25  this is completed by 10pm on the regular. Maybe even shoot for 9pm, now that would be awesome.

Have a good night.  Peace


Procrastination...

I've got to do better. I keep saying I'll complete #75HARD by 10pm. All I can say is I'll go for it tomorrow.

The day started with a smoothie.


Great way to start a rest day for me. No bike riding but I did go for a 2-mile walk at 10pm.

I sat outside most of the day on the web trying to find some tires for my bike. Yep, the order that was to come on Friday didn't happen. That order is now canceled and I'll visit a local bike shop and get some tires.

The weather was great and I took in from sunrise to sunset.

On to tomorrow......Peace

#75HARD DAY 21

No photo's today. I just completed Day 21.  The highlight of the day was my bike ride. I found a couple more canal routes.





Tonight I get to go to bed at a decent time since my task were completed earlier vs later.  Tomorrow I'm going for a 10pm completion of #75HARD.

We shall see. Rest well.

Peace

Can you say flats happen again....

Yep, after having breakfast.....


I put on my uniform and was pulling into the meetup spot and had a flat. I fixed the flat and returned home.  I placed an order for some new tires. I had two holes in the rear tire and I could see daylight through it. LOL  

So I jump on my single speed because I'm determined to get my one hour of therapy my bike.




 One of the many parks is a reflection of these pandemic times. Most areas are blocked off and in restrictions are the norm nowadays.

*******

So after the ride, I made a water run, toilet tissue run [3 stores were out] but 24 Carrot did not disappoint. I showed them some love/support today and order pick. Support a local business.




To cap the night off #75HARD DAY 20 .....complete!!!

Peace

Flats Happen

Well, the flat almost happened. The sealant did its job. I was 3 miles from home.  On the way home I stopped by Global Bikes and picked up a couple of tubes, went home took care of that issue. Examined my rear tire and noticed.....let's just say I need to start looking for some new tires.

Back to the business at hand. #75HARD DAY 19 [Check] and in done!

Breakfast was a smoothie. Lunch, chili over rice. Dinner, salad. Late night snack, PBJ sandwich.



Finished reading Greg LeMond's complete book of bicycling. Great read now on to the next book.




Have a Gr8t Weekend!!!

Peace 

Bike Life

#75HARD Day 18 Complete!  What I have come to realize is that me being a procrastinator is not conducive to this journey. That is going to have to change.

The day started with rice. I treat rice like oatmeal for breakfast. Anything goes as for the fixings.


Rice, bananas, strawberries, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, cinnamon, and honey.

I set the bike stand up and went to work on cleaning the drivetrain. Dirtier than I thought. So when I finished it was as quiet as a church mouse.

I was treated to the best pasta and veggie sauce before heading out to meet the Wednesday Night Riders. I had three helpings. It was that good.

There was some debate about the unofficial night ride. The consensus was ride solo until further notice because of the pandemic.  I showed up anyway because some folks might just show up and they did.  It was a fun ride. #sixfeet



Wednesday Night Riders

Back to procrastination.  The remainder of the night was finishing my water, reading 10 pages and finishing my second 45-minute workout.  Like I said....this has to change. I must do better.

Have productive day folks.

Peace

Smoothie Time!!!!

After a day of water fasting on Monday, Tuesday morning was going to be smoothie time!  Man was it good. Give it a try.  Cherries, blackberries, strawberries, bananas and almond milk.


From water fasting to "Smoothie Time"!

Ran around taking care of a few errands.  Late in the afternoon, I headed out for a little training ride/therapy.  Afterward, I treated myself to some vegan chili.  Yes, I had a few Oreo's and enjoyed them too.

The rest of the night was spent completing #75HARD.

#75HARD DAY 17 complete. ✔

Peace
