Riding in the City

Wednesday evening I had a meeting in the centre of the city so I drove to Malvern East Station and rode from there on the wedgie. The path is closed in part for repairs and I failed to see all the detour signs. I rode 19km to the city and only 13 back. It was an interesting and enjoyable ride for the most part. Some of the path is not best suited for the road bke and I understand why most people have fat tyres for the paths. I almost come a guttsa on tram tracks at one time but managed to survive.
Friday I did a short ride to work of 9 km and 200 km after work. It was a great day for this time of year and the ride was enjoyable both ways. A bit cool in the morning but that is to be expected at this time of year. The ride home I watched the sum moving down to set. A nice evening.
Saturday I rode the usual 42 km Inverloch Wonthaggi Cape ride and had a good ride. A 70+ km ride is planned for next sunday. Look forward to that if the weather is good.

I'm back

I haven't been blogging for a while due to life being busy. I was riding fairly often over summer and we holidayed on the Murray to Mountains rail trail. See http://www.crazyguyonabike.com/doc/?o=3Tzut&doc_id=3572&v=2D for the story. Shortly after this I developed AF in my heart and this slowed me down for a bot while it was sorted and riding was greatly reduced.
I have resolved the AF for now and am back riding. Took me odometer readings toady after 50 yesterday and 43 km today on the trike. My reading are 11620 km for the trike, and 3401 for the wedgie. This gives 5767 and 2931 since the end of june 2007. 14 months i have covered 8718km or average of 622km per month. This is above what I had thought I have done lately.
Anyway, I am looking forward to another year of riding with the improving weather. I hope to do the Slog to Sale to get a 160 (100 mile) ride and do the GVBR again this year. I also hope to purchase a 2 wheel recumbent high racer as a tax and heart special.
