Title: Bike Ride Videos Post by: sprite75 on July 09, 2022, 09:58:04 AM Finally got around to posting the infamous first Twin Cities bike ride that I did on April 2. The one that didn't end well.

Title: Re: Bike Ride Videos Post by: sprite75 on July 09, 2022, 12:53:45 PM Sorry, what happened? I had a cycling accident in early April. There were some conflicting stories. Someone said I got hit while others were claiming I had an episode. I cut off the video right before the accident but it just showed me on the ground. I was running in time lapse mode so it wasn't a true video so it's possible someone whacked me and took off. Given how hard people are saying otherwise I'm thinking it was more someone hit me and took off but I guess we'll never know for sure.

Title: Re: Bike Ride Videos Post by: sprite75 on July 11, 2022, 07:49:32 PM I wanted to try out riding the bike to and from work so I decided to go in to the office today.
https://youtu.be/h9th6yBAots Fairly nice ride. Not too hilly. Wound up being about 14 miles total. Not used to riding like that as much so I'm a bit sore but I hope as I do some more riding that'll go away. Had bike lanes pretty much the whole way there and back which is nice because then there's the separation. There's racks in the basement for those of us who work in the building.

It was OK but I think I need to either find a trailer or get a bag that can be mounted on the rear rack. It was a bit on the heavy side after the grocery store. Plus it started raining too on the way home. Title: Re: Bike Ride Videos Post by: sprite75 on July 13, 2022, 08:45:56 PM This afternoon's post work ride.
https://youtu.be/6Z04hOSlpG4 Went for a trip down to the neighborhood shopping center then up and around Lake Nokomis. Found a good lakeside place to sit and knock back a couple while watching traffic go by on the lake. Title: Re: Bike Ride Videos Post by: sprite75 on July 25, 2022, 09:12:21 PM And today's post work bike ride. Just over 19 miles total.

Wound up being almost 16 miles total. Title: Re: Bike Ride Videos Post by: sprite75 on August 08, 2022, 09:24:58 PM Found a good route down to Eagan so I did that after work today.
https://youtu.be/ngCtKMMCIoQ About 16 miles total there and back. Title: Re: Bike Ride Videos Post by: sprite75 on August 15, 2022, 09:11:42 PM Today's ride down to Eagan and back.
