A Smaller Post

This blog was originally intended for me to give updates on my health goals with sprinkles of other commentaries now and then. It seems to have turned into the opposite! Several Homeric articles (that only a brave few dare read) and no information on how the whole health thing is going. Well today I'm going to change it around! Prepared to be bored!

Sunday: Rode my bike around SLO (15.82 miles)
Monday: Rode my bike to work and back (10.28 miles)
Tuesday: Rode my bike to work and back plus 35 minute lunch ride (18.44 miles)
(update: I'll just keep adding to this post as the week goes on)
Wednesday: Rode my bike to work and back (10.28 miles)

Running total for this week: 54.82 miles

Since the construction on Broad makes it pretty dangerous to ride there (not to mention that I've popped 3 tubes now because of all the metal in the road) I took a suggestion from my friend Ben to ride a different route. Although it adds almost 1.5 miles to my round trip ride it is much safer and WAY more scenic. The route wasn't possible last year because a clutch piece of construction off of Orcutt wasn't finished. Here's a graphic for those with reading disabilities.


Yes, my architecture friends! I did use Illustrator to draw those beautiful paths!

  2. And you get to bypass the hill on broad. So that's a bit of a plus.

  3. True! I also modified my route a tad more today and took Foothill over to Santa Rosa rather than climbing that hill on North Chorro and taking Murray over to Santa Rosa.
