Hikers seem to be especially bad lately, it doesn't jack the trails as bad as tires but still isn't good especially when they go around muddy spots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not trying to go back down that rabbit hole with you. I was referring to the people that came out of the woodwork and bought a bike or started walking around the trails out of covid boredom and have no sense of muddy trails, how to know if/when they are dry, and/or don't give a crap. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AntonioGG Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 (edited) Trainerroad today I think. Â Though I did a 27 mile sock ride yesterday. Â Started dry and cloudy upper 60's. Â I thought we'd get drizzle. Â I didn't expect a downpour. Â I was not wearing the right glove and needed a base layer. Â Was supposed to be 60+ miles ride. Â It was an interesting ride home, riding down Adirondack amid white waters, taking shelter at First Honda, annoyed at how noisy these Shimano brakes are when wet. It was an adventure and that was awesome for me. Edited December 31, 2020 by AntonioGG 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4fun Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 Wahoo kick’r for me. The next outdoor ride I’ll probably get in will be Monday on my day off and expecting conditions to be amazing out at spider mountain, so I’ll finally use the gift card my wife gave me for Christmas in 2019!

Cafeend Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 Seems like RPR is gonna be busy tomorrow. I generally go there on NY day for some reason. Generally isn't too bad. Last yr for NY i rode SN instead. Maybe if I had kept tradition and rode RPR like normal this past year would have different Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AustinBike Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 Riding the couch with a roaring fire, gonna dip into the vodka right after we have Via 313 for dinner. Then settle in and watch something mindless until I fall asleep. Urban for the next couple days. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mack_turtle Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 Currently watching endless Youtube videos about places I want to visit some day. Barcelona looks pretty interesting. Accompanied the viewing with a coffee donut from Wheatsville and some cheap whiskey. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â Just enjoyed a cup of coffee while eating a beef pot pie from Tiny Pies (OMG so good!) and reading Texas Monthly from a few months back. Â It may be a late ride for me, needed since I haven't ridden much this week. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hurronnicane Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 We had been planning a family ride on NewYear’s Day at Walnut Creek but that ain’t happening.  Still talking about some kind of urban ride but members of our party will likely balk at the idea of riding in the 40s.  Fortunately we did get in a family ride at Muleshoe on Sunday. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
