Got up and after ordering some finish lumber for a So Ogden job, I headed to Legacy with my mountain bike. Cloudy and cool kept the trail clear of other people. I think
I only saw about 12 others usin g the trail. And no wind :)

It's been so long that I forgot I had my solid rubber tires on until I had made it half way down Legacy. These tires do not get punctures but they are heavier and cause the pedeler to work alot more. It's also been a long time and I'm way out of shape. But I made it to the end and back. Got to get back on the bike more often.

I'm not doing very well with my goal for this year. But never the less I got out tonight and rode Legacy Parkway. Sun set before I made it to NSL and it dark and cooler by time I made it back to Farmington Station.

I had forgotten about the head winds on Legacy Parkway until this morning. About the Farmington/Centerville border is where the winds from the south start. As I left Farmington Station I was seriously thinking of doing two laps today, but after fighting the wind all the way to North Salt Lake I decided one lap is all I've got today. Was back home by 11:00 am

It was the Ward Party tonight in Farmington so after installing the solid rubber tire on my mountain bike, headed to the Farmington park then onto Legacy Parkway. It has been a long time since I rode this trail and noticed lots of improvements. Also noticed how dry everything looks. Road home in the dark.

14 August 2010 Bike the Bear

Got up at 4:00 am so I could drive to Garden City for the annual BSA Bike the Bear. It was 49 degrees at 7:00 am when the ride began. 5 and a half hours later pulled back into the church parking lot having completed one loop. I did double back several times rather then pedal slowly up hills. The last 5-6 miles I noticed my front tire was low and so had to stop several times to pump up that tire so I could proceed. While pedaling I decided I needed to lose 25 pounds before the biking season turns cold. I'll record my progress here on these pages. My goal is to weigh 179 lbs.

Today's Miles - 51.6 Miles
