| lots of debris in road this AM from last evenings t-storms. Had a micro-burst in our area as there were trees and lines down on all roads leading in to our house. Finally got home about 7:30pm when town crews cleared one tree a couple houses down - road still barricaded, but you could sneak around if you were local traffic. No power, and power lines down in a number of places within a mile of the house (no CL&P crews out yet either), but once away from our immediate area, not even much leaf debris on roads.
almost got hit by some nimrod turning left across my path at the 32/195 intersection. I figured I'd have low traffic on a Saturday AM, so took the direct route on 195 - guess the idiots are still out there. Don't think it was a sub-moron though - they have guns in visible in the truck, right?
no evidence of the L knee twinge, so I guess I'm good. |

| hot, but not oppressively humid - ok when moving. detour to get prescrips at cvs, then home on 195, not sure what posessed me to go over bald hill, but nice up top... |

| tweaked something in my left knee yesterday on the Trail-a-bike. Didn't feel anything this AM, but decided to skip the bike and give it a day anyway. I'll plan on getting back on the bike tomorrow..

| sun just rising when I left, but once over bald hill was riding in dense fog. took the long way (back roads) to avoid the moron drivers on 195. glasses fogged up so took them off and rode a little slower. Time still a guess - I suppose I should break down and see if a new battery will fix the watch, eh? |

| warm, but not humid. Legs felt like bricks - no speed at all. But had good steady power uphills nor did I fade in my usual spot coming up from marsh. But the downs & flats didn't feel any faster. Guess on time, merely adding 30s per km since it didn't feel fast |

| Bike - Road (commute - 195) 45:00 [3]19 km (2:22 / km) | |
| shoes: Cannondale ST1000 |
| overcast, humid, few sprinkles. Opted to take the more direct route all the way on 195 to Baxter, then the usual route. Probably the same total climb, but more high speed traffic to deal with - but pretty quiet on a Saturday AM |
| Bike - Road (commute - home) 1:00:00 [3]25 km (2:24 / km) | |

| moderate to pouring rain - actually quite enjoyable except no glasses meant pavement snakes crept up on me and passing cars occassionally forced me to ride through large puddles and runoff streams - but no surprises luckily... |

| usual route out to Rockville Spur, took Hop River trail to industrial park in Manchester, then turned around. Was going to attempt McClean again (this time in the small ring), but then decided to cut a few blocks across town and pick up TDF stages 13 & 14 on video tape from my mother in law's. True to form, she was camped out watching stage 15 (I've created a TDF groupie) so I refilled my bottle, stood there sweating for a few minutes, then got back on the bike - came home via Ellington Ave, then back around the Snip... Quite an enjoyable ride, home by 8am when everyone else got up. Going to be a hot day.... good day to catch up on the TDF... |
