    I rode further afield today (16m) back past the mine and the Mustang Ranch which I have shown before. Just as I got on to my road a neighbors new huge white dog ran to the end of his chain momentarily surprising me. When I looked back three big deer ran across into the brush. So my heart was...

    Took a short ride so as to answer in the affirmative when the oral surgeon I see this afternoon asks. He founded a local riding group called 'Spin Doctors' ten years ago. He will also grill me on Shakespeare, specifically "The Turning of the Shrew" which I agreed to read at the last visit. I...

    Got out today for another short one. I only had to walk the first 50' over the ice.

    With effort I was finally able to get out for a ride, atrophied legs and all...the most taxing part of my short journey of seven miles was the 500' walk down my icy gravel drive to the road. Light pollution is a real problem...it's often wasteful...misdirected...disturbs natural processes in...

    My nifty heated vest does not work (on a bicycle) when there is five hundred feet of ice to traverse to the road which, in any case, is unplowed and only marked by the deer. Some wonderful birdlife stirring around my avian diner. the usual cardinals, the males a brilliant red in prep for mating...

    I rode the last few days for the first time since the end of November. I got my bike back from my rediscovered mechanic. She replaced my long running tires (10K...back one slick) with a similar Schwalbe Marathon Mondial. She downloaded updates the last mech missed as well as replacing the newly...

    You feel proud? What does that say about those in Spain. Do you imagine they are sunning themselves thinking...boy I wish I was up there with Stefan! I'm proud of him. Happy no damage to you or your bike...

    Wolf moon rising. In the old oak in the bottom right I watched a hawk yesterday. It perched for at least a half an hour, its sightline at my feeders.

    It's further North here too, TY. Both my body and bike have been in the shop for December. I had a super duper E-bike tuneup from REI in October. The mechanic who introduced himself as the head of the shop did a terrible job. If I can find problems you know it's bad. Luckily just before Xmas I...
