He's moved back here from TX. Couldn't handle the poor cycling conditions out there for his retirement.

Comments: 1.5 AP. Quick ride between showers. First ride in a week, thanks to all of the rain up here in Eureka this week. The average speed is suspect. Low battery was affecting speed on the cycle computer. The mileage is also estimated, but close. Trip odometer read 4.85, but that was with some speeds of 0 or 4.5 MPH. I'll change the battery after this entry. Crossed 25000 on my cycle computer on this ride!

Comments: 1.0 AP. The cycle computer did not get a good reading from the handlebar, so I put it in the handlebar pack. Had to use stats from the previous commute, although I got a good max speed measurement. I got new batteries for the sensor and the cycle computer. Will put them in tonight. The acid test will be tomorrow's 50 mi round trip ride to Trinidad, CA.

Comments: 26.0 AP. Placed the cyclecomputer in the pocket a the bottom of the handlebar pack. That did the trick, but it did go to sleep between the Hammond Trail and Mad River Rd at Miller Rd in Arcata. I figure about 9 miles. So, I added those with corresponding time to the calculation. As I got to Myrtle Ave, about 8 or 9 cyclists were going in the opposite direction. I considered joining them, but decided to go to Trinidad as planned. Nice ride. Great views. Had my lunch there and returned. Discovered the Hammond bike trail along the way. Nice bike path. Glad I had my Dinotte taillight on the way back on US 101 with the sun in motorists' eyes.

We did Suicide hill twice, where I set a PR twice: Max Speed of 48.7 MPH, followed by the second run at a whopping 50.7 MPH!! Then we went into Sun City Lincoln. After a stop at the Starbucks at Ferrari Ranch Road, we headed back. All in all, a good, brisk ride.

Comments: 16.0 AP. Started the "B" ride with Carol and John-Paul. Carol dropped off early, and John-Paul had to go to a memorial service. So I rode to Flower Farm to meet up with the "A" riders. Never saw them, so went on to Performance Bicycles, Bob's Cyclery (to order orange fingered gloves), and Sharp to get a new cycle computer for Carol. It was nice to cycle the roads of Rocklin, Loomis, Granite Bay, and Roseville, again.

Comments: 4.0 AP. Went to the apple orchard up the road off Myrtle Ave. Steep climbs but unbelievable decents. Came very close to losing it on the way down. There were two close ruts in the road perpendicular to my line. When I hit them, it caused me to hydroplane a bit and felt my rear tire slip out to the right. Fortunately, I corrected properly and continued. But it was close. I had already flashed on the looming crash. Wasn't pretty!

Comments: 30.5 AP. This was the TOUGHEST RIDE of my life. In the mountains, and over 17 miles of dirt/gravel roads. The first time that I had to use my "walking" gear, numerous times, on my hybrid. My commute tires were no match for the loose gravel. Fell off my bike once and got road rash and a "shiner on my thumb. Got lost and added an extra 6 miles as a result. Left home at 10:49 and returned at 21:46. Glad I had my lights. No cell service in the mountains, few farm houses, and nearly zero motor vehicles. Had to stop at a farm house for water refills of my two water bottles. Got warned by a driver (former mountain bike magazine writer) about the "growers" (read: pot) who don't have any respect for outsiders. This as it was getting dusk. Oh yeah, he said "the summit is 4 miles from here, then it is all downhill to Eureka." Fortunately he was right.

Comments: 0.5 AP. My slowest commute ever. Legs and body still recovering from my brutal ride on Saturday. Also, I heard a thunk, thunk, thunk coming from my front wheel. Stopped a couple of times to look at my tread and at my rims to see if something was rubbing the pavement or brakes. Couldn't find anything. So, back at the apt, I reset the wheel in the fork with the quick release. I tested it in the parking lot, and didn't hear the culprit anymore.

Comments: 0.5 AP. Trip to the dollar store for bread & cookies. Before the trip, I removed the front wheel, deflated it completely, reseated, and pumped back up. The thump sound was still there. Opened the brakes to see if it was a rubbing against them. Thumping was still there. So, upon return home, removed wheel and oiled the axle. Also noticed that my head tube was loose. No tools available here, so I hand-tightened it as best I could. Let's see if that cures the thumping tomorrow. Happy birthday to Panache! EOM Odometer: 25632

Comments: 2.0 AP. After work I went to the LBS to get rim tape. I saw in BJ archives where odd noises from wheels may come from gravel or rust bits in the hollow part of the rim. To remove, take off rim tape and shake it out of the rim holes. Well, I did that and also lubed the spokes where they criss-crossed one another to eliminate the possibility of rubbing noises. I even swapped out the tube. THE NOISE IS STILL THERE!!! I guess I'm going to have to suffer through it tomorrow on the Tour of the Unknown Coast. Fellow cyclists will probably avoid me like the plague when they hear that annoying noise.

Comments: 32.0 AP. Great Tour of the Unknown Coast. My cycle computer fell off my bike on a bumpy descent. Rode back about 1/2 mile to find it (St. Anthony came through once again). But, my cycle computer zeroed itself out. So, I had to reconstruct that portion. Plus, I had to reconstruct the mileage of the rest of the ride, because the wheel size went back to default, and I forgot to reset that. Good grief. The good news is that although the thumping noise in the front wheel actually got worse during the ride, during a descent on the Avenue of the Giants, I heard a "snap," and the noise disappeared as suddenly as it had appeared (just like Captain Ron at the end of the movie). Fierce northerly headwind for the return leg of the ride, I hooked up with a couple to paceline back -- thank goodness! Turns out that the guy was commissioned in the Navy from Nebraska NROTC the same year and month that I did from OU NROTC!

Comments: 1.0 AP. Rode to church this afternoon. I'm glad I went to the 5PM Mass instead of tomorrow's 9:30AM, because they had a prime rib dinner afterwards -- beats the frozen pizza I was planning to have at the apt.!

Comments: 21.5 AP. Leggett CA to Fort Bragg CA Day 9 of Tour. The actual start was at Red Crest along the Avenue of the Giants, but I yielded the first half of the ride to the designated driver, since I had ridden the Avenue of the Giants before. Unfortunately, immediately after I started out, my cycle computer slipped out of its harness. I found it in the shoulder, but it didn't work. The mileage and the max speed were calculated from Rick's cycle computer. The time was clock duration, minus about 25 minutes of stoppage. Before retiring for the night, I threw the cycle computer on the hotel room carpet a couple of times and then smacked it on top of the refrigerator. Miraculously, it started working again!

Tried out my Shimano bib shorts for the first time. They felt nice. My cycle computer was belly-up from the drop during the tour earlier this week. It did not work for me today. So, the distance, speed, and some of the time was interpolated for this ride. Will go to Sharp to get a new cycle computer.

Comments: 9.0 AP. Sharp ride to the Whistle Stop in Lincoln. I was intending to ride to the closest point of approach to Auburn then break off and head up there to buy my monthly bus pass. Carol rode with us partway up 12 Bridges Road!! :-) At the summit of 12 Bridges Road just before Sierra College Blvd, I stopped with Rachel. She pointed out that I had a tear in my rear tire. Sure enough, there was a split down the middle of 2.5". So, I broke off and headed home. Safety prevailed. That tire retired a the end of the ride home.
