Paddling (SUP) 1:00:00 [3] 4.0 km (15:00 / km)
Pre-precipitation puppy paddleboard picnic. Hot, humid, and with a rare north wind prior to the arrival of afternoon thunderstorms.
Mountain Biking w/ Jess 54:00 [3] 11.6 km (4:39 / km)
Gorgeous sunset with purple skies showing through under the retreating storm clouds. If only those had been the only clouds... The pine pollen has been billowing off of the trees all day, and with the headlamp on, it was like riding into a sandstorm.

Mountain Biking w/ Jess 1:23:00 [3] 15.6 km (5:19 / km)
At the end of my ride around Walden on Wednesday, I leaned the bike up against the car, and it immediately fell over on the derailleur side. Test-rode it through all the gears in the parking lot, and it seemed fine.
Sure enough, on today's first climb, I shifted to the granny gear and the derailleur started plinking against the spokes. Limped back home to bend it back into alignment, and then set out for a humid ride. Jess got mobbed by puppies on both segments, to her delight.

Mountain Biking 2:00:00 [3] 24.7 km (4:51 / km)
Walden mtb loop before kayak practice. This time I brought marked-up copies of the town trail maps, and managed to stick to the right trails in all but two places.
Paddling 1:05:00 [3] 6.3 km (10:19 / km)
Paddled and rolled my kayak around Walden with a canoe paddle, after finding out we'll be in canoes with kayak paddles for MSAR. Favorite conversation of the day:
"you're holding the wrong end of the canoe paddle"
"I think he's doing that on purpose"
(I blew the roll, and had to use the "right" end to get back up)

Paddling (SUP) 45:00 [3] 3.0 km (15:00 / km)
Fought a tough headwind up to the north end of the pond, and then flew downwind to the dog beach, and then really struggled to get back to the boat launch.
Mountain Biking w/ Jess 41:00 [3] 8.2 km (5:00 / km)
Post-volleyball ride with Jess, once the temps dropped below 80. Came upon a long-tailed weasel at a water crossing - only the second time I've ever seen one of those! Wished we could stay out longer to take advantage of the rising full moon.
