Easter Sunday Ride

Easter Sunday Ride by paulmnbw at Garmin Connect - Details

I only had time for a short ride today, that's why I didn't do the club ride in Westport. These first two pictures show the improvements the new owners of this stable have completed. It's a lot nicer than it was before, the old owners let it get run down.


This is the first time I've rode these roads in Rehoboth since last year.

Rhodekill Ride

Rhodekill Ride by paulmnbw at Garmin Connect - Details

This ride took place a couple of weeks ago, in the pouring rain, while I was in Vegas. John and i decided to do the 43 mile loop instead of the club ride today. It started off a little cloudy and cool and we did feel a few sprinkles at one point, but soon the sun came out.


The ride paralleled the Coventry section of the East Coast Greenway and we were able to check out the newest 5 mile section under construction. When this section is complete in the Fall, it will be the longest path in RI.

The ride took in some dirt roads, which I hate riding on, but I toughed out the first few of them and talked John into skipping the last 6 mile loop which had another one combined with a big climb.




This was our last rest stop and we got to check out more of the construction.

NBW Great Grandma's Farm Ride

.
I've only been averaging one ride every two weeks this winter, so I knew I was no match for the long loop of todays club ride. As it was, the shorter loops still had plenty of climbing.

These first three pictures make up one climb, the worst on the ride, Burlingame road. Luckily it's stepped, so I was able to stop to take these pictures and give my legs a break. Sucks to be out of shape.

VEGAS

We had a great time in Vegas, the racing was fantastic, the night life was ok but not my cup of tea. We did see some great exhibits, didn't care much for all the walking.

The view from atop the Stratosphere was freaking awesome.



One of my favorite TV shows.

Thomas and I at the track.
