Finally, a Ride That Uploads to MotionBased.com

I rode 14.89 miles with Justin and his BIL, David, this afternoon, and am feeling great. See the ride’s stats from my Garmin Forerunner 305+heartrate strap at http://tinyurl.com/2xaywq; you can compare my heartrate to Justin’s (his stats, here). He’s in far better cardiovascular shape than I am right now.

We even swung by Bulverde Airpark where a former co-worker (former executive) has his home-built aircraft (RV9) hangared. She (all aircraft, like ships, are female) is a beauty–I was trying to be polite, so I didn’t snap a Blackberry photo… only to have Justin confide to me that any owner of an aircraft would be thrilled to have someone take photos of his baby. Point taken.)
With the installation of my indoor bike trainer not happening until Tuesday (it arrived late Monday), and all the yard work on Thursday, I only got two bike trainer sessions in this week and today’s outdoor ride, but that’s nothing to sneeze at given all the weeks prior.

My cadence sensor didn’t behave so I don’t have cadence data for today’s ride, which doesn’t matter to me outdoors but is a PITA for the bike trainer sessions (because MotionBased sucks for GPS-trackless activities.). I hope to get the cadence sensor issue resolved ASAP. Tomorrow’s a recovery day from the bike, though. I feel great but don’t want to burn myself out.

    Very proud of you!

    When I first saw this post I was going to say, “Hon, we did not ride with Bill, we rode with David”.

    Then I remembered BIL is brother-in-law.

    I know, I’m not up to the latest internet acronyms!

    :-)

    There, I added his name in apposition to suit you. When you read mom’s blog, just remember SIL is Son-In-Law, namely *YOU*; I always read it as Sister-In-Law — hehe!
