2025 Mileage: 72.7

Always something! I decided to wait on my ride today until late afternoon, and then planned a 90-minute ride. However, at the 30-minute mark, the mechanism (which has been growing increasingly problematic over the last few months) seized up, and would pedal no more. I've put over 15,000 virtual miles on it in the 4 years that we've had it, and so I am now weighing the thought of ordering a replacement from Amazon.

Because of this issue, I'm trying to psych myself up to ride outside tomorrow. The coldest ride I've done so far was one brisk 17° February day a few years ago, but I had thought I had "aged out" of such winter riding. I may have to dig out my gloves, hat, and heavy coat for tomorrow, though, as it's supposed to reach a high in the low twenties tomorrow afternoon.

I again rode while watching the TV sitcom Frasier, which Michelle and I began binge watching during the later part of 2024, and although I had intended to ride watching 4 episodes, I only got through one and a half before the cycle gave out.

This gave me a ride of 5.8 virtual miles today, in 30 minutes.
