Oops.
I'm trying to set a record to see how long I can go without posting to this blog.
Damn.
If you like blogs that post totally random articles with absolutely no regularity, then this is the blog for you. Or maybe not.
I took the Jamis out for the second ride today. The weather was a little warmer, but cloudier. I'm still getting a feel for the new bike, but today the bike felt even better than when I rode it on Tuesday. I have to say, I'm really liking the clip-in shoes and pedals. It just feels like I can get more power out with each crank. Especially when I can pull up as well as push down on the pedals. And with the bike being so light, it just leaps forward.
Took the new bike out for a ride today. And the Garmin memorialized it. Check it. And be sure to check out the Player function.
Inspired by the AWESOME data from the "Jake Rides" links over at 83 Durant St, I've decided to post a single graph of data, showing my average speed of each ride from 5/31/06 to 1/2/07 (when I first started biking). It's pretty easy to see the immediate improvement in speed in the first few months. I hope to enter more data and post more graphs soon. Sad, isn't it?
