Cleves Tonight

All of the results are posted on the Queen City Wheels Facebook page. Good group of riders, 33 total, with 14 riding new PR’s. I did a 22:32, 27.4 mph, and held 360 watts. Should be able to get into the low 22’s and maybe even upper 21’s but the end of the summer.

Mega-Hike

this is a post from a facebook friend. He does solo hikes in Great Smoky national Park. Pretty amazing journey a few weeks back especially given how little he carries with him for 6 days and 150+ miles. He also did a solo bike ride across Alaska a couple of years ago. He was gone

Spring Series Omnium TT

I rode just the tt portion of todays events. Short course at 3.83 miles. Rode it in 8:47, average power at 378, cadence at 98, 4.9 watts/kg. Overall pleased with that effort. Still a little too cold and too windy for me with temps in the upper 40’s to low 50’s. Won the 45-54 category
