Feb-19-23: More Short Errand Rides

All in 39/14 gearing + standing all the way
I could do this route in a bigger gear, but ... 
And standing all the way is a training exercise, 
More mental than physical, I reckon. 
 
 
Feb-19 
 
More follow-up to my recent exercise adventure
Not following-up on the exercise adventure, but following-up on the reason for the exercise adventure.  
 
1.6+ miles each way.  3.2-miles total.  9min in-motion each way; i.e., 18-min total. 
Almost all on sidewalks. 
[An interesting thing I learned from reading the "Harry Potter" books: 
In Britspeak English, "pavement" means the same as Amerispeak "sidewalk."] 
 
 
Feb-21 
 
More follow-up to my recent exercise adventure. 
Not following-up on the exercise adventure, but following-up on the reason for the exercise adventure. 
 
1.6+ miles each way.  3.3-miles total.  9m,25sec going, 8m,15sec returning; i.e., 17-min total. 
Almost all on sidewalks. 
[Wind-shift between going and returning?  Or just more loosened up?]
 
 
Feb-22 
 
More follow-up. 
 
1.6+ miles each way.  3.3-miles total.  9m,29sec going, 8m,35sec returning; i.e., 18-min total. 
Almost all on sidewalks. 
[I absolutely know that there was a wind-shift between going and returning. 
Even though there were only 10+ minutes between -- a storm front was moving in.] 
 
 
Feb-23 
 
More follow-up. 
Future such errand rides will be for other reasons. 
And there are plenty of other reasons in the offing. 
 
1.6+ miles going.  1.9 miles returning (simplest way to avoid a car was to make a small detour.) 
3.5-miles total.  
8m,42sec going, 10m,00sec returning; i.e., nearly 19-min total. 
Almost all on sidewalks. 
 
 
These are NOTHING stories, but I'm trying to get back into the habits of: 
  1. riding more often, and 
  2. blogging every ride, soon afterward (that used to be the "required" protocol). 
 
Those are my stories for these rides, and I'll be sticking to them.
