TRACE THE MITTEN

What do you do on stormy days?

This is my plan for rainy days, ride inside.  I look at the weather prediction for the day and decide what I feel like doing.        Our thunderstorms went through last night, but today there was on and off rain. This time of the year the temperature in a big deciding point.  Today it was in the 60s and it is 69 degrees, so the temperature is perfect.  I was in the mood to be inside and ride on the trainer.  Yesterday was a wonderful day and I spent 3.5 hours on the country roads southeast of my home.
      While on the trainer I will watch bike riders adventures on YouTube. Please enjoy the places that I saw during the two hours in the saddle.  I like to see places that I will never get a chance to ride. I go in 30 minute segments. It helps my body recover the static position by walking around. Between these two practices the two hours went fast.

On a tour I will ride in the rain.  I always carry a poncho and I do not mind getting caught in the rain. I enjoy the selections on YouTube and this allowed me also to consistently train during the cold days.
