Riding into the rising sun and a pretty decent headwind. Quite a bit of traffic, too for this early weekend morning. But enough space on the roads.

Swede Hollow Double Pole Workout

Adjusted the ferrules on my roller ski poles before practice, so the points were adjusted properly. One was pointing backwards, the other sideways. Not the best setup to get the most bang for the buck. Either this or the strength I gained from paddling, roller skiing or simply from healing paid off big time, felt much stronger than three weeks ago. Nice to see this progress!

Headed home after workout, nice to have a tailwind. In a little park at Avon and Thomas there was a big to-do, the Humane Society was offering free vaccinations for the dogs and cats of the neighborhood. Looked like everyone was out to take advantage of this super deal. Saw John at Trung Nam and chatted with him.

Riding home after a good bye and good luck to Andrew and Jake (and probably a little more beer than I should have had). Some nice conversations during the afternoon, too.

Stopped for a burger and a malt at Culver's after weekly shopping trip to Target and did not notice that they did not hand me the malt till I got home. Got my malt and a dessert of my choice next time I go. And a short and easy bike ride on this lovely late summer night.
