Did another long ride around town this morning and that was what the body needed (plus a hundred crunches in the afternoon). Did the Three Albertsons again, except this time I went counter-clockwise which was a tad easier (or maybe the recumbent work at the gym is helping). Took Deadman's Curve and did not have to stop when I went up the Curry Street hills near Koontz, which is a first. Another big upside is my average speed for the trip was 13.8 MPH (my average speed over 14 rides this month is 11.9 MPH), so the recumbent work is doing something.
About the only downside of the trip is Dollar will not shift into the third spoke without getting all messed up, so the bike is heading back to the shop.
Took some pictures but nothing stunning. The below is from the southeast part of town up looking northwest. The sky was that blue.
And those are old seaplanes parked at the Carson airport. Someone must really love those beat-up old warriors.
Just finished watching Game 2 of the World Series. If you're the Astros, how do you pitch to a guy who has hit zero home runs in the regular season (Podsednik)? And if you're Brad Lidge, how do you face your teammates?
