Funny things have been happening as I di\tched Zone 2 (training) and reverted to Zone 1 (recovery). Each ride I have been getting better and better. Today's ride averaged 11.3 mph which is a tenth better than the last ride on that course. And we had a pretty hard headwind which clocked around some to be less helpful on the return trip.
It was supposed to sprinkle today but although we had overcast, it wasn't even damp feeling. And there doesn't appear to be any heavy clouds in view.
I have to clean up the two DeRosa's and list them on Ebay. And Monday I have to call my investment councilor whoi seems to have disappeared off of the face of the Earth. He isn't responding to txt messages. I wonder if he moved on without Stiefel letting me know. For that sort of business it would be strange but who knows?

You admit it - WEALTH. Since you spell so good why couldn't you get a job?

We moved along pretty good for old people today. Four of us in the group and I led since I'm slower than the rest. Or at least sort of. They ride pretty fast for the first half of the ride and then drag the second half. I ride a pretty much even pace from start to finish. But I do find it irritating for these guys to ride up along side of me - the opthamologist showed me that I don't have binocular vision so I am nearly blind in my left eye which might be correctable but the Boinocular Vision Clinic at UC Berkeley doesn't have any appointments for six months. Wo my vision is largely my right eye which, thank heavens, is my dominent eye.
In any case today marks more than 2,400 miles of riding. I might try a longer ride tomorrow but I have to see how well I sleep. This is supposed to be an average rain year around here and lower than normal in the LA area.. So I should be ableto double that mileage for the year.
