Plenty of Driving This Week – BionicOldGuy

I’ll have overdone the amount of driving this week, however the climate has been good so it’s been enjoyable. Final Tuesday we did a gaggle trip within the hills East of Gilroy that began on the Mendoza ranch entrance to Harvey Bear park. I often catch a trip up there from my pal’s home, however currently attributable to SI joint points I haven’t been in a position to trip my upright on this lengthy of a trip, and I used to be afraid my recumbent wouldn’t slot in her automobile. So I rode the recumbent from dwelling to the beginning, making this a complete of 90 km (56 miles) for me (and three batteries). It was a fantastic trip, although. From the valley this time of 12 months, it seems to be actually dry within the east hills, and it’s at all times superb how fairly it’s while you stand up in them. On Wednesday I did one in all my exhausting rides, 85 km in 3 hours 25 minutes, with a bit over two hours brisk tempo adopted by some intervals and sprints. Thursday was a tough higher physique session adopted by a straightforward restoration trip, then Friday I went to a protracted brisk tempo trip of three Hours 20 minutes. Then yesterday was some straightforward arm-cycling and a simple restoration trip for a complete of 70 minutes.
