On Friday Dan and I went out with a couple of other people on a SRFFK. We did about 25 miles total. Our average pace was around 13 or 14 mph. The reason it was so slow was the crazy headwind that we encountered regardless of which direction the road turned. For most of the way I led the pack as the air bulldozer, creating a bit of a windbreak for everyone behind me. One particular stretch of long slog we went about 11 mph, barely making headway on a flat road. At one point we even smelled salt like we were at the ocean. On the way back into town, we hit a stretch where we were with the wind. According to my speedometer and the way the wind died down when I hit a certain speed, the wind was blowing at a steady 25 mph. It was quite the slow ride for fat kids!

I didn’t get around to recording two road bike rides in the last week. The one ride was about 25 miles and the other was about 15 miles. Pace was 15mph on the first and 14mph on the second. Also this week I went into the gym several times to run on the track and lift some weights. Gotta get ready for swimsuit season!
Dan, Kyle, and I went on a quick ride along the Coffee Loop. We tacked on some extra by doing Witham Hill as well. According to my computer we did 19.6 miles, I hit a maximum of 40.3 mph, the average speed was 14.8 mph, and it took us about 1:20 to do the whole route. My cycling computer tells me I burned 1050 calories. That should help work off a few of the beer calories from last night’s fun.

Dan and I went out for a road ride for fat kids today. Including going to and from Dan’s house, my ride was about 20.5 miles. Our average pace was 12.6 miles (sloooow). My max speed was 31.6 mph. Total time including waiting around at Dan’s house was 1:39. Total calories burned was 1078 (according to my little $10 cycling computer).

This year’s Halloween was pretty epic. It got off to a slow start but by the end of the night everyone was having a good time. Here are some photos to prove it.
