Rained Out

Posted by xaminmo

Most people bailed before the ride,
due to impending weather.

The rest of us started the ride backwards.
The rain was blasting past my glasses,
and lightning started to happen within 5 miles.

We aborted, rode back, packed in,
and a few of us went to Fuzzy’s in Grapevine.

Peach Pedal 2014

Posted by xaminmo

Group ride in Weatherford, 61 miles from weatherford HS.

The first 20 miles went by REALLY fast. Lots of downhill. Several patches of sketchy gravel and silt by a bridge. Immediately following were tens of riders on race-weight tires, side of the road, replacing tubes. I’m thinking the 40 second saved by a fit, lean, low-weight rider using lighter tires is negated by spending 3-5 minutes replacing a tire.

Rest stops at 20,30,40 and 48 miles. Gatorade, water, pickle juice, pickles, cookies, rice crispy treats, brownies, bananas, oranges, and peaches were available, as well as shade, and a water hose. 400 volunteers in all and it was very much appreciated. So amazing. Really well supported.

Becky and I were off the front for a while. We paused at 20mi, but the crowd came, so we bolted. At 30, we loaded up on food and drinks. At 40, we stopped because I forgot to pee at 30. Snacks and more fluids, and off we go. We saw Sharon zoom by. She was hanging off the wheel of some of the Dallas Cowboys, and wasn’t looking back. We tried to catch up, but no joy. Becky got a 10 second lead on me, and it took me a couple miles to catch up. No way we were catching Sharon.

Through a few sections, a lady passed. Very good looking from all angles. Strong rider, neon jersey. Tried to keep up with her, but she was more of an 18+ rider than me. The only reason we were around eachother as much was because I had a shorter rest stop than her. I hung off her wheel for a few miles, but she laid into a climb and disappeared.

Near the end, the shorter routes merged into ours for a unified final run. Some really tired, or sketchy riders mixed in there, and a couple of collisions here or there. A few SAG trucks hauled off people who had non-fixable mechanical issues, and we did see one ambulance backtracking. Didn’t see any injuries, but I did see one stout and tall fellow standing over his bike, telling himself he would be fine. I didn’t see any injuries, red face, etc. so I kept rolling. Lots of support vehicles, police, etc around, so if he decided he wasn’t going to be okay, help was nearby.

Becky’s new phrase is “Suck it up, buttercup!” and she called that out at the end as she sprinted past me for the last 2 miles.

The Skratch HyperHydration mix REALLY helped a bunch, as did having so much ice in my pack. For 61 miles, it took 3.75 hours. Really good performance, and I attribute it to having so many better riders around me that I would forgetfully try to follow.

After the ride, the ladies really liked the Cryo booth, but I was just happy to have a shower after. No towel, but I made due. So nice to rinse and cool off.

I had a few little donkeys (burritos!) from Rosa’s Cafe, and some peaches, and lots of additional fluids. Tried some “homemade peach ice cream.” Well, it was home-made (ice crystals), and had some peach flavor, but I was hoping for something a little stronger, and/or a little smoother. Actually, a touch of vanilla would have rounded out the flavor nicely. Not bad, I just had too high expectations for the price (about $1 per ounce).

After heading out, Sharon’s crew checked out from their hotel, and went directly to the Parker County Peach Festival. Karl and I went to The Pizza Place and tried the Hamburger pizza first. The hamburger meat is actual, earl, not from a bag, so the flavor is much better. Small crumbles, quite tasty. 2 kinds of cheese. Crust is actually crusty. I wish I’d gotten bacon and double toppings on it, and had put the parm/oregano on it. Even so, it was very good, and Roger(?), the owner, was nice. I’d definitely eat there again.

The Peach Festival was okay, but by the time we got there, it was SO HOT. A few grouchies, and a few silly people, and a Matrix style lady in red passed by a couple of times. Aside from that, the peach cobbler was always sold out, but the peach julep was tasty. Most everything was busy, but we just all melted into death puddles, so it was time to go.

Travel there took me just over an hour (5:17 to 6:23am), and travel back was right at 1.5 hours (had to take 377 due to I35W traffic). All unpacked and glad to be home. Am a little caffeinated from mile 48 “6-hour energy” and the soft drinks I had with lunch, so I cleaned the kitchen after explaining every little detail to Erica, who was very patient with my rambles. We also need to have a date, just because, so that is to be planned. Probably Monday night or Tuesday day, since that’s payday.

75mi Grand Prairie Ride

Posted by xaminmo

Meet-up at Cadence for the weekly long ride. Attendees included:
Theresa (invisible), Steve, Kathy, Amanda, Sharon, Becky, Karl, Jim, Josh (Me), Mike.

We rode down across the Grapevine Dam, through the airport, looped around the Grand Prairie race track, then up through Irving (including Las Colinas and Valley Ranch), and stopped for lunch at Hard 8 in Coppell.

On the way through Valley Ranch, Mike bonked pretty hard, and we were worried he wouldn’t make it to lunch. He’d been off the bike for a few weeks, a little short on sleep, etc. However, after a Cliff Bar, he magically came back to life. Tired, but powered through just fine.

Amanda had an indexing issue on the rear derailleur. At first we thought maybe a bent hanger, or bent RD, but on closer inspection it looked okay, and the chain seemed straight. 2 twists of the inline barrel mostly fixed it. It probably needs a little more, or maybe just zero out the cable and re-clamp it. She was tuckered out and sagged back to a bike shop for adjustments.

Karl dropped the chain off the inside of the cassette. No spoke damage, and easy fix. He stopped pedaling really quickly, so it didn’t wedge in behind the cassette. KARL! REMEMBER TO ADJUST YOUR LOW LIMIT STOP SCREW!

At a couple of pauses, I had to check email for work, but things went pretty well. My shoulders are sore. My hands are sore. Need new gloves, because I buy cheap, and my right hand is getting a blister. I remembered to go fairly salty on my beverages and food. Need to remember more tonight, so I don’t cramp up on the airplane ride tomorrow night.

After lunch, we took Freeport/Lakeside/Garden Ridge, and then the Flower Mound trails up, came down Briarhill, and back through to Cadence. From my house to the second Cadence stop was exactly 73 miles, so the actual loop was 70.85 miles. Wheel calibration should be within 1%. Some of the others rode from further, so they had as much as +9.

Lots of good conversation, rambles, and not enough sprinkles. The humidity, and the wind from the south was pretty brutal, but we survived. Overall, it was a great ride.

Watts are complete guesses. If Calories are correct (FirstBeat/Garmin), then I averaged 195W. If Strava is correct, then 145W. If my calculator is correct, then 551. Nothing really factored in wind. So ready to have a wattmeter.

I checked on my Easton wheels, and they do have a squeak/problem. It’s been 3 weeks, so I’m a little antsy. The plan is to ship them off late next week, and will probably get a factory replacement. I said I’d follow up in a couple of weeks. Wattmeter ordered 2014-06-09, so that would be the same time I would check to see if it’s in (3-6 weeks).

2014-06-21 Krum 71

Posted by xaminmo

2014-06-21 Krum 71


Nice ride to Argyle, Ponder, Krum, lunch at Cartwright’s on Denton Square, then back through Katy Trail, Corinth, a stop at Phil’s Kia dealership, then on to Flower Mound, and home.

Attendees include Sharon, Becky, Nadia, Desiree, me, Steve & Theresa, and Karl, in order of appearance. Nadia and Desiree called in the SAG wagon at 40 miles, and Karl joined up after he did Tour de Cure. It was mostly overcast, so we only really had some sun on the last hour. A light breeze from the south, sometimes a little cool. Really nice riding weather.

Sat Krum Ride Plans

Posted by xaminmo

Riding HV, Argyle, Ponder, Krum, Denton, HV tomorrow morning. Water stops in Ponder and Krum. Food stop at Cartwright’s Ranch House.

I’m not certain about riders and winds, but I’m expecting to average 16mph on the way up, and 13.5mph on the way down.

I guess I should re-connect my front derailleur. :)

2014-06-17 Ladies’ Ride

Posted by xaminmo

http://omnitech.net/xaminmo/2014/06/17/2014-06-17-ladies-ride/

Sharon invited Karl, Mark and I to join the Ladies’ ride tonight. I wasn’t sure why at first. Then, the starting group was only 4 ladies and 3 guys, vs 10 last week. I thought maybe it was to fill the ranks. However, it was a pretty hard push. 15mph is not my peak effort, but more than I hoped for a recovery ride. Mark and Amanda bailed at the stop (Lewisville Theatre / art museum). I think maybe she invited us as much for personal competition/drive as anything else.

Anyway, the music was mediocre, but entertaining anyway. I had a couple snow cones, a footlong, water, diet coke, and 1.5 bottles of Cytomax Orange. Some gabbing about bike-tech, phone tech, and SharonMPH (in retrospect, it’s 15% higher than statute MPH). Amanda’s tickled by a lot of my normal, dorky comments, so that makes me happy. (One less groan!) It was funny seeing Kathy, Carol, Sharon and Amanda all doing the WOOT WOOT raver girl sound during one of the songs.

I enjoyed it, but I think the inherent competition (ie have to keep up!) of us guys on the ride defeats the purpose of a ladies’ recovery ride. If we ride faster and keep up, then Sharon rides even faster. We have more testosterone, so we build muscle faster, etc. Having one lady bail and 2 falling off the back when there’s Sharon and 2 guys up front probably isn’t friendly/fun for the non-competitive riders.

Inviting us along implies to me that maybe she’s getting restless with the ladies’ ride. She’s always competing against herself, and pushing to ride faster. She’s got a lot of miles already in her legs, so her ramp-up is equal to someone 20 years younger. I worry that she’ll either drive off the beginner ladies, or bail on the concept of a ladies-only ride within a couple months. HH100 is coming up, you know.

This is just my speculation. I read a lot into things, and despite my portrayal, I really do NOT know everything.

2014-06-14 Twisted Ride

Posted by xaminmo

Rode to Twisted Root with Sharon Haney, Amanda Taylor, Kathy and Jim Burmeister, Desiree Lua, Nadia Morales, Josh Davis (me), and Carol & Boyd. 30 miles into the wind, 20 miles back. Lunch in the middle. The ladies got a booty photo in front of the “Get your buns in here” sign. Got a photo of a nasty looking wound on Desiree’s leg that has been growing for 3 weeks. Maybe a spider bite. Lots of suggestions to see a doctor. Nadia was moving kind of slow but really wanted to complete the ride. Charles swept in the car. Some people picked up some farmer’s market goods in Roanoke, and that also went with Charles. Kind of sad that Desiree’s moving to Germany for work, but I bet she’ll have a good time. She spoke German as her second language from age 4-16, so should be able to pick it back up. Had a good time talking with Amanda, a new addition to the group, and one of the workers at Cadence.

Watts are off, because wind + Strava. Will be fixed in a few weeks.

Bike 4 Bears

Posted by xaminmo

We sort of did the 30 mile route, but avoided hilltop, and added miles off-route. Also, includes the ride to and from Bikes Plus. Ride support included snacks, water and ice at the mid point, and the same plus gatorade, chips, cookies, beer, BBQ and burritos at the end.

Also, adjusted my max HR. With the new (better) strap, and a year later, I’m not hitting 191 BPM. I’m peaking around 180. Based on DigiFit, that’s pretty close to my calculated MHR (191.5 − [0.007 × Age2] ). That may change as things heat up though.

2014-05-28 ZOOOOMMMMM

Posted by xaminmo

Sharon split off as a second, faster-paced ride. There were 5 at the start. Beverly rolled a little late, and I rolled about a minute late. I sprinted and didn’t catch them until crossing Belt Line on Royal. The intermediate/advanced group was first, then 2 cars, then Sharon’s group of 6, then 2 cars, then me. I struggled up the hill, and passed 2 ladies to catch up to the front 4: Sharon, Andy, Karl, and Beverly. That’s when Beverly began lagging back, and once we got to the turn-off in the warehouse district, the 3 ladies were nowhere to be found. We waited, and it looked like they joined the no-drop group, so we rode on.

That pause, and we never caught up with the intermediate group. The rest of the ride was pretty much the same average speed, a hard push for me. There were a couple spots where I had to brake, but mostly, there was no coasting. We usually kept at least 90 watts into the pedals.

I’m REALLY proud of my average speed for this distance. This is pretty much a new record for me, even if I don’t break any real metric records.

2014-04-24 “Easy Spin”

Posted by xaminmo

“Easy Spin” with Sharon, which translates into
“harder than yesterday, plus more wind.”
Pretty depleted, but reward was La Madeleine.

Knees were a little poppy once back on Las Colinas Blvd.
Ran out of oomph once we got to Royal on the final stretch.
Good meeting with Carrollton Cycling Club at La Madeleine’s.
A few hours later, right calf is a little unhappy.
No riding tomorrow, but lots of stretching hopefully.
If I can walk on Saturday, there’s a longer ride there.

Had to adjust my seat once home, and tighten up my BB.
Still need to tighten up the right crank. CREAK.
I think it’s a frame flex (lost cost) issue.
I need to move my 40 degree stem to my other bike,
but then I need to see if the spokes on it still creak.
I might have to send them in to Easton directly.
