Been awhile. Strong lifting. Looks like you’re really into the biking.

Sorry I’ve been absent! They’ve blocked updates at work, funny(ish) as I’m known for killer hours…
Just over double ear/sinus infection… and got heat stroke from Sunday’s ride.

Not lifting enough, nor riding as much as I’d like… But next week, we ride the Erie Canal!

Anyway, lost a lot of upper body strength since summer, especially push. Odd as I hit a PR mid summer, and lower body pr’s but I’ve also lost 10-15lbs.

Feeling really good!

Been gone awhile!

10-days vacation, rode Erie Canal Buffalo to Albany 8 riding, just short of 400 miles…

3 equipment failures. 1 a Mike Moron Move, the other 2, things I wanted to replace before the ride but didn’t.
My SO crashed a few times, new with cleats, they got REALLY sticking in the rain, and terrain was an issue. But She’s OK!

Anyway,
Home lift. Taking my own sweet time about it…

Been too long since a gym lift, been long time since leg day. You’d think ~360-400 miles in 10 days would count for something.
