Solo 37 miles. Started out EZ and a short ride. Headed back finding out my Monday ride was canceled so I turned around again and continued on up to the top. 😄 But I felt great. Must have been my pre ride night ritual dinner, Sizzler petite steak and a cup of rice. Gina had the salad bar. 😄
As much as I wanted to ride this week, it was rough getting started. Tuesday I think then I thought about Thursday, Friday, and Saturday but ended up spending time with Gina. Nice but sometimes after a few hours, we're struggling trying to think of things to do ha ha ha! I guess riding the first few hours of the day makes it just right then the rest of the day and evening are nice. Heck, did have a good time at the movies the last couple of times but the price here in California, WTF! About $20 per ticket and these are movies that I don't really WANT to watch. I might watch them if there isn't anything else playing of interest. Now Laughlin, $7.50 per senior, more my style and I would go to the movies more often if tis were the case here at home. $20, F that ha ha ha!
Somebody spreading stories around Facebook and bike groups saying the Pico Rivera golf course doesn't allow cyclists to park there any longer. Not true! All these cars are cyclists there this morning. Another 6 when I finished about 2 pm.
The thing that I don't like about cycling forums and facebook bike groups. Too many people talking out their asses not knowing what's going on. Like the parking sitch-ee-ation. Someone reads a sign and jumps to conclusions without even asking, investigating, or trying to find out what the signs are really about. I mean, c'mon, hundreds of cyclists would be affected had someone not had their head up their ass finding out the real deal. Just like fb cycling pages and groups. I know many of the posters from cycling forums and some don't even freaking ride bikes. They talk a lot and kiss ass a lot but they don't even ride. I dunno, I guess walking a lot makes one a knowledgeable cyclist ha ha ha! Gotta throw this in as well. The internet bike forum poster who constantly says he wants some fine chick for a wife. Tone body, long beautiful hair, purty lips, and walks like an angel all the while criticizing women who are a bit overweight, not fat but don't fit the BMI BS chart. But looks like Jerry Lewis and found a woman that fit his description but unable to keep her happy so now he has to visit his child when he can, or when she lets him. Bunch of lost losers who really can't cope with life. Oh yeah, the one moron who gets offended by everything everyone says claiming everyone is an alcoholic but later posts that his wife says he's drinking too much. Ok ha ha ha! I guess these groups are just too much to fit into reality ha ha ha!
Another thing about internet cyclists, always crying and whining about how drivers are trying to kill us. OK, today, a usual example of what I see and why I get disgusted with internet whining. I get treated well on the road, night or day.
But today, a cyclist packing up his stuff when I approached the end of my ride. I began packing up my stuff. Took a little longer to log my mileage on strava. The dude was done when I first pulled up into the lot on my bike. Sat in his van for a long time as I did my stuff. But as soon as I start my truck, back up, then proceed out the lot, he starts his van taking off blind from the opposite side of the lot. Both heading south to the exit gate, he speeds up, doesn't see me and cuts right into my path. I'm thinking, what a CS'er. But realize he didn't even realize I was there so actually, he's an idiot. Then as we exit the gate onto a road with a blind curve, speed limit of 25 mph, he's rips out of there going about 50 mph, WTF! I swear, too many freaking idiots on bikes that are drivers too. And way too much hypocrisy on the net.
