55 glorious miles today in perfect weather once again, only spoiled by a jammed chain about 5 miles into my ride which took a lot of effort to put right...it also chipped the paint on my chainstay! :( Nothing a touch up can't fix though and it was quickly forgotten about as I had such a great trip! :D 1,804 miles now covered this year from 42 rides which gives me an average distance of 42.95 miles! 42 rides and we are only just in May, last year I only had 69 rides for the whole year! Changed days indeed!

Not riding today but a close friend of mine visited me today because I'm giving away the surplus gear I don't need and Joanna got my Specialized rear-view mirror; she's an avid and athletic rider of two-wheel recumbent bikes. (On her Czech Republic trip last Summer she had been riding for 11 days with her hardest day covering 100 miles/160 km with 3900 ft/1200 m elevation gain, all on a mechanical bike).

Joanna took the chance to demo-ride my Vado. She has been riding for 20 minutes testing all assist levels. She easily hit 25 mph (40 km/h) with 70% assist level.

Did she give it back? 🤣
 
Another lovely day here for cycling, just the right temp at 15C for a very enjoyable 40 miles! After mentioning in another thread that I'm lucky if I see 8 cyclists @Readytoride during my many trips, well today I saw about 8 in the first 2 miles! :D I lost count after that but it must have been more than 20 by the time I returned home! Its good to see people on their bikes, I think quite a few were born again cyclists looking at the way they were riding!:p I have yet to see another e bike on our roads which surprises me, I'm sure they are out there though!

I was trying out my new Samsung S10 phone today, it has a really nice camera built in which I will explore more soon if I can be bothered!:p I took many more photos today than normal, I'm only uploading a small sample, like a 62yo kid with a new toy! ;) I'm impressed so far anyway with the phone and the camera! My route today was a nice figure of 8, I lost count of the number of times I changed my route today so I was really surprised to see how symmetrical it was!:D

Not a great photo .... My phone (motog6play/amazon version) has the worst camera. Anyway this is behind the Smoky Park Supper Club in Asheville, on the French Broad river in the River Arts district. This is the first ride in the city for 2020 and I must say....pretty deserted place, even downtown. The weather could not have been better. The bikes have been dormant since we got back from Fl the first week of Apr. Charged them up, fired them up and had a flawless ride. Going to try and map out a gravel route for next week. Asheville is not a bicycle city, no matter what you hear. Drivers (not all) are not cool with cyclists on roadways. The road bike guys seem to be most adept at dealing with it and thats good. I for one get "triggered" lol

I couldn't get out yesterday which is a shame as it was such a beautiful day with clear cloudless skies (not something you see very often in Scotland) but I made it out today thankfully, 41.6 wonderful miles in near perfect cycling conditions! It sure made up for yesterday's disappointment! :) 174 miles covered already this month so I consider myself very fortunate in the current climate!

The nice weather and impending weekend is bringing the stay at homers in droves to the OR coast. A little rich tourist trap town north of here tried to be nice but ended up shutting down all their beach but will reopen on Tuesday....Anyway I was getting a little Cape bound and set up a GPS track for an all gravel ride north of me that I had to drive to but a long section was one of my favorite 2 lane country roads. So I guess I was breaking the stay at home thing also but the big difference was that I went to an area that is all behind forest gates and had a nice little area all to myself for a 24 mile/4k ride with great views on a nice day.
