Grateful For Skilled Action

Seven weeks from June 13 until start of Empire State Ride.

Does it fit to be a
Biking web post?
Gratitude?

Wind — Help or Hinder?

Eight weeks from June 5 until start of Empire State Ride.

Another day of big wind & high temps,
Requiring my careful time-plan to ride bike.
That is, for my optional bike rides.

Was It What You Expected?

Ten weeks from May 30 until start date.

Along a bike trail,
I saw sign on small cafe —
“​Friday is Pie Day”.

​”What Are YOU Thinking?”

As of May 23, ten weeks ’til bike trip!

A ride this week was
One of most exhausting I’ve ridden!
Wasn’t length — 27mi. very do-able now.

How Do You Get Shape Back Into Your Life When it Gets Flat?

Eleven weeks until start of Empire State Ride.

No biking to report.
Unusual week filled with time-consuming appts.

Each important with positive outcome,
Each gulping down time.

What Captured Your Time?

12 weeks until start of Empire State Bike Tour

Not much biking for me this week.
“Living-my-life-happy” events,
Things that come ’round annually,
Were center of attention.

What Keeps You “Plugging Along”?

Did I ask you that before?
It’s been relevant for me this week.

Staying diligent & consistent,
Increasing mileage as I ride nearly daily,
Needed an “auto-pilot” setting.

How Have “Could and Should” Balanced For You?

Yippee!
Positive start on longer ride-days.
20, 30, even a 40 miler this week!

Tell Your “Playmates” They Are FUN!

Quiet bike trail.
Quiet ride “playmate”, Bob,
Pedaling under new-green fringe of spring,
Truly FUN!

How Do Consistent & Persistent Show Up For You?

Showing up,
Completing the task.
Grumbling as I go.

I guess that’s “consistent & persistent”.

What “Aha” Reminder Have You Had?

Mine came from 13-year-old source.
“Seems big — but
Actually, just bunch of little things”.

What’s Your “Current Carrot” On Discouraging Days?

Slightly longer rides this week.
These longer ride days are
HARD!
