My riding has been very limited this week. Well actually all of my training has been limited because I am trying to work back into a 3 heavy 1 light workout week and this is my first light week. Well that is until tomorrow when I am planning on a century ride on my Single Speed Cross bike.
So when I got home early yesterday the wife was working and we had no plans and I asked permission for a 2 hour max ride. She approved and I headed out.

I took the mountain bike because I figured with the new chip seal down in the area I could save some hassle and then I could hit the park for some dirt riding. It was a blast but the legs are definitely tired after a long year of training (and it is still just August!).

| Big waterfall huh? |

My local park is a haven for me and I have most of it all to myself whenever I head over there. Periodically I will pass people on the trail but not very often. In the winter it is even more abandoned and all mine! Thanks Erie County!!

So I rode around on the dirt, cracked my knee on the handlebars, and headed to flat asphalt cruising before heading home.

| Flat or Hill?? |
|
So I came to my option point and I asked the legs - Do you feel froggy? They said no so I went flat besides my always climb home - some hills are just easier than others.
Should have a lot of pictures tomorrow from my century - Get out there and ride your bike!!!!

You were a good boy and asked for permission. :-)
My rides also often do not see another rider. Which amazes me, it so beautiful out there, and I have it all to myself, just doesn't seem right.
Have a great ride today!
