It’s Saturday. I need some miles. I didn’t want to ride alone so here I am on the Tour de Zwift again. The ride – Zwift The bike – Trek Madone 6.9

Started a group ride in France. While it was virtually beautiful I wasn’t feeling it. I found a 3R group ride which was great until I wasn’t paying attention and found myself playing catch up and failing to catch up. I joined a different 3R group compatible with the pain in my legs.

Joined a group ride with The HERD to spend some time riding the newest Zwift course – Scotland. I started towards the back (800s) and made my way up to the High 200s.

But not the real France The ride – Zwift The bike – Trek Madone 6.9

Another hour and a half spinning around New York. Not my favorite route but my legs kept me up late last night and I just needed to spin in circles for a while. The ride – Zwift The bike – Trek Madone 6.9

Missed the A ride but jumped on the trainer just in time to grab the B ride. After an evening of night skiing last night I was intending to do a chill ride. That doesn’t happen in large group rides as riders from around the world virtually jockey for position. After burning up my legs I spent some time chilling in Watopia to loosen up
