FB posts from today’s bike ride:
Given my awesome lack of exercise, I am repeatedly amazed by how much I can actually do. I think I found where the lack of exercise shows up. I just rode 1 mile on my bike making sure to go slowly. It has been 15 minutes and I am still shaking like a chihuahua.
After an hour an a half of sitting, there was little to no shaking in the hands. The bike ride home was a lot easier. I don’t think I got that much better in this time frame so I am guessing that it is downhill from downtown to home.
it’s amazing how much of a difference VERY minor inclines can make in the difficulty of biking.
BTW, if you ever want to check the elevation change in your planned bike route, this is a neat tool: http://gmap-pedometer.com/
thanks, that is an interesting link.
