Went out for a late afternoon ride with the wife on the tandem because the yankees blew a 7 run lead. Felt much better about it after the ride.

Very windy day. Went whooshing downwind, and struggled back upwind. Of course, I was always going the same speed against the wind.

A moderately epic (seems like an oxymoron) ride. Ran out of time to get home before Quaker meeting, so I hung out in town for 1/2 hour, doing some mapping for OpenStreetMap. After meeting I rode home another 5 miles, making it over 33 miles. It's been a while since I was down Russell Turnpike (the southernmost road on the track). Saw snow on the side of the road. Yesterday it was 88 degrees. Amazed to see that not all the snow had melted.

Heather and I went on a good long tandem ride on Friday. I think it was the longest tandem ride so far. She did very well, and the hills seemed easier than ever to climb.

Got caught up and passed by Stephanie Farrington O'Brien (who routinely wins the local duathalons). She was kind and let me ride with her, but I could tell that I was holding her back with my mountan bike. Ended up averaging 14.35mph moving.

Went into town and out to Bill MacKently's (St. Lawrence Nurseries) to tell him about Bannon Automotive, a battery electric car starting up in Syracuse. They're licensing a design from Reva Automotive in India, and buying parts from them (at least to start) so they can get into the market quickly.
One of these days I need to change the program that calculates the numbers above so it calculates a moving average speed. Right now it only calculates end - start time by distance. My moving average was 12.45mph.

First tandem ride with Heather, post diabetes diagnosis. She went ten miles without seeming to get tired at all. This is good; very good!

Went past Norwood, to cross the Racquette on the next bridge north. It's an old bowstring bridge, currently limited to 3 tons and 7 feet height.

Just a little ride into town. Temperature got over 40 degrees, so in spite of the sand lining the shoulders of the road, and the snowbanks everywhere, I had to go for a ride.
