Today I met my goal of 10,000 miles riding my bicycles in 2019. Feels good. 585 hours of good old fashioned fun. Not sure what my goal will be for 2020. Probably won’t be distance related. Commute this morning was 21 miles in the twenties. The lowest temperature was 25℉. Chilly for this southern boy. Ride on. ☮

A trend I can get behind. Temperatures in the 70’s℉ the second Tuesday in a row. Super nice. Good commute. Ride on. ☮

Didn’t think I would log a century ride today. Ride on the Lake Moultrie dike was taxing. It was windy and the trail was spongy from the recent rains. The best segment was on Hwy 45 where I had a nice tailwind. Without that I probably wouldn’t have made this a century ride. For the first time since Tuesday the temperature was comfortable, hanging around in the 60’s℉ for a while.

First visit to Dungannon WMA. It has nice pine needle covered trails leading to a swamp. There was more to explore. Skipped the trails that were under water. It rained yesterday. Good ride. Ride on. ☮

I paid for a nice tailwind home with a 33℉ brutal headwind this morning. Lets call it even Mrs Winter. Bring that those seventies I enjoyed on Tuesday. Ride on. ☮

Seeing today’s forecast over the weekend I immediately decided to take a long route to work. Out the back of Nexton, Hwy 176, Mudville Rd, Hwy 6, Lake Moultrie west dike, Hwy 6 to work. Glorious morning. Afternoon ride was good but windy. 65 miles for the day. I’ll take it. Ride on. ☮

Rode to the Ashley River Sunday afternoon. Good ride. Ride on. ☮

Rode to Snee Farm for the Big Family Christmas gathering. Took the long route there and the short route home. 91 miles for the day. Good day with the family. 2019 goal update. 9,614 of 10,000 miles so far. 386 miles to go. Ride on. ☮
