Third from First

 


Since my Fat Bike was down due some shifting issues and the rear wheel is out of true, I pulled the Cujo out of stable and I discovered a broken spoke while putting air in the rear tire. I pulled off the wheel to take it to the shop later and then I pulled the Stump Jumper out of the stable. Of course it had a flat tire, too. I put air in it and hoped it would hold air.


I rode over to PHP from Ann's via the Rutland Creek Path and then hit the Escalator. It was in the low 40s and wore compression socks, shorts, short sleeved base layer, a jersey and a sweatshirt.  


Climbing up Svelt Tiger I started to get hot and was wondering if the sweatshirt was over kill.


Then I took Droopy Muffin



to the Blueberry Hill Overlook.


Turning onto Jersey Turnpike I almost cleaned the short time but stalled out at the top and put a foot down.


On Milk Run I tried the techy section and found that it would be much better in the other direction.


Finally I got to Furlough and then Exit Strategy and then I headed back home. I tried a few different things for recording my ride.  I always use the Garmin Edge to capture the whole ride, then I used my phone for Trail Forks and my watch for RWGPS. I was using TF on my watch but found that TF doesn't share easily as RWGPS.
