Keeping The Bicycle Shoppe located behind my apartment busy. New freewheel, bottom bracket, chain, wheel bearings, and brake cables on the Wabi Classic single speed. Rode to the Strawberry Chapel. Wasn’t sure I could climb the Tailrace Canal bridge with the 46t/18t freewheel. It wasn’t easy but I made it both times without stopping. Almost repeated the mistake of sliding on a wet wood deck. Caught myself on the Cooper river dock before falling.

Didn’t feel like riding a century mentally or physically this morning. Got on the bike anyway to take advantage of this warm weather. Headed out to Ravenel SC and thought about heading home several times but told myself just keep pedaling. As the miles ticked away, the headwind changed to a tailwind and the temperature cracked 70℉, there was no reason to go home. Amazing how that works. Rode a few new-to-me quiet country roads today.

Temperatures in the 80’s℉ on Thanksgiving. I’ll take it! Good fun riding on the dike. Less than 400 miles to reach my 10,000 mile goal for 2020. Certainly doable if I can stay Rona-free. Ride on. ☮

What a week, huh? Captain, it’s Wednesday. Yeah, but my work week is done. Pretty much. Thanksgiving holiday is tomorrow. Got a little bit of work to do but should be able to put some quality miles in this weekend. Good commute. Ride on. ☮

Low temperature of 37℉ with a northerly headwind on the way to work. Not my ideal weather but it is late November. Ride on. ☮
