Now that my feet have unthawed and I am comfortable , I will review my ride for today. Was going to initially ride on the road today, but it was to cold for this wuss. I opted for the mountain bike today instead. No single speed, road the geared slayer today. Rode all along the east side of the reservation then went into Fish Creek park. I am not to familiar with Fish Creek, and it made for a good adventure. Although it was cold and my feet eventually got frozen, I did enjoy the ride.
There were some steep climbs that I came across, and was able to climb them. But last year I am pretty sure that I wouldn't have made it up them. Would have only made it about 3/4 of the way up before having to bail off because of losing power, or my breath. LOL
Up ahead there was a group of mountain bikers and I figured I would catch up and see if I knew who they were. Probably the group was about 20 large, but did not know one person as I blew past them.
On the south end of 37th street there is the reservation, and I had thought that I might try and go through the reservation. (not using my head) After getting in about a km or so I realized that I wasn't thinking and turned around and left the reservation. Had a gut feeling that I shouldn't go through there, and decided to trust it and not take a chance. With my luck I would get lost and then get run over or something and no one would be able to find me, and then all the pain of having someone put in a missing persons report. I think my car was left on the reservation after it was stolen a little while ago.
Tomorrow isn't supposed to be very nice so I will probably be riding the mountain bike again. I so wanted to get in some quality road miles this weekend. Guess I am going to have to wait until next weekend to get in some quality kms.
