commute

Monday the 2nd I started commuting to work. I leave my house at around 9p.m. to get to work by 10 o'clock. It's not that bad of a commute once you get out of the Ghetto. On the way home I can lengthin my ride to make it more of a work out. It's a good 16-mile sprint. Takes me about an hour both ways. Fastest time this week was wednday morning. It took me 53-minutes.
This morning around 4:30a.m. I left my house to go do some hill repeats on Baseline hill in East Highland. My commute to work is mostly flat so decided I needed to get some climbing in.
Since Sunday I've got'n 178-miles in and 11 hours of pedaling. Lets see If I can keep it up. I'm hoping to be able to do this all month and see how much gas money I can save. I'm still paying off my gas card from my kokopelli ride and i think i'll be able to afford my gps by next month if I keep this up. I plan on going to Brian Head to do the Epic. Team Big Bear has nothing to do with it this year. It's going to be self-supported, no entry, no podium, no shwag. Just Beer and ice cream at the end Hopefully some pizza too. Theres talk of lengthining the ride and make it a loop instead of an out and back. Should be exciting.
Sunday the 8th we (TEAM B.S.) plan on doing the beach trail from Waterman to Van Buren. I'm going to add some miles by doing Greenspot Rd. to Redlands. I'll be leaving early in the wee hours. I'll be at Stell coffee shop at the corner of Alabama and Barton Rd. when they open if anyone wants to meet up. I'm starting to ramble on so it's time to stop.Later......Vzman OUt!

hey! i just did that smae ride you talk about doing on the 8th last Sat. From my house on Cedar/Center St to Greenspot, to Waterman, bike path to Roubidoux, and a litlte more around the paths and that sketchy park over there. Then came back to Waterman, over to Barton, back out to the Mormon Temple and then back to my house (with a few more loops of the block to make sure I got 4 hours in). Took it real chill on the pace, but it was a nice ride. I really enjoy that trail! When will they open it to the actual BEACH!!!
