What's It All About?

Follow me, or better yet join me as I journey into my sixties... enjoying my grandchildren... trying to stay healthy and fit... maybe some traveling and whatever else tickles my fancy.

Out 'N Back

I did my out 'n back ride today... after a 5 mile warm-up loop I took off to White Plains... I used the navigation on my GPS to get me there... it basically took me the same way that I always go, except for one hill it wanted me to take that I usually go around, I opted for going around it as per my normal route... when I get down to 180 lbs. I'll think about taking extra hills.

I found out that the screen dims itself when I have a long stretch on one street and it'll brighten up when a turn is coming up... a battery saving measure I guess... there's also an audible beep when a turn is coming up and a double beep when you're almost at the turn.... all good features I suppose.

The temperature according to the GPS is always on the high side also, but it might be hotter on the bike than the real air temperature, plus the sun beating down on it might account for that also... it said my min. temp was 77°F, the Max was 91.4° and the avg. was 82.8°... but according to the local weather it's just only hit 79°F right now.

Anyway, enough of this, I haven't eaten anything since 5:30AM and it's 12:30PM now... that's not good, even though I'm not hungry, I gotta go eat something.... have a great day all... see ya tomorrow.
