Fun. Challenging. Hot. Lots of food and laughs. Exhausting. Sleep Depriving. Happy. Silly. Tiring. Inspiring. Great. The recap of the bike ride for 2019 Buckeye Breakaway with my team the SOB's was all these things and more. Take a couple minutes to watch the video below with the Skiers on Bikes, read this recap and learn about my experiences this year!! About my bike: My bike is a 1988 53" Cannondale with downtube shifters that we bought from Craigslist in 2012. The previous owner barely rode it and it was like new. Except for the bent fork.

Doing something you love, that just happens to help you get fit, is a real lucky thing, I think! This time of year is full of anticipation for me. I'm going to do a big ride in August as...

The weather forecast was supposed to be the low 90's today and my bike group has a long bike ride planned in Cleveland, starting before noon and probably not finishing until well after 4 pm. Of course, we won't be riding the entire time. We'll be taking photos (there are 3 Cleveland signs on the route) and probably stopping at a marina on Lake Erie for lunch. Being able to participate in a long day during the heat, without any ill effects, can be a challenge. Heat gets to me, so I try to do several things to stay cool during summer heat. You probably are doing most of them already. (Some aren't so pretty.) Here are my heat tips for bike riding or running a race when it...
