Velocipede
U.S. Art Nouveau style man riding bicycle along river trail
- Blessed to live a few hundred yards from a paved river trail that connects to several other trails.
- After getting my leg run over by that car, trails are preferred.
- Slow in speed, but out several times a week as weather permits.
- 2 hours is currently my sweet spot.
- The only current goal is to exceed the monthly average from earlier years.
- No fancy (expensive) bicycle or clothing.
- Getting in the zone with good tunes is preferred over riding with others who like to chat.

1Google abandoned the MyTracks app on 4/30/16, so no digital data until 11/16 when I purchased a Garmin Fenix watch
2Started digital tracking 09/11 - Riding for years before that
3Inactive for over 2 weeks - thrown out of normal June peak groove
