Notes: Due to holiday travel, I logged only 4.5 miles last week, so I skipped the weekly wrap.
This week I’m back. I went to use the e-bike on Tuesday and discovered a flat rear tire. Bummer. That meant I was on the regular road bike all week.
Nothing special to note other than the fact that I dug through an old bag of ski wear in the garage and pulled out a nice pair of wool gloves. It’s getting chilly.
Also, the road bike is a mess. It need to set aside about an hour next week for some serious maintenance work.

What's an e-bike?
Is it virtual?
If you ever see me running down Central Avenue dressed in a lycra jumpsuit and holding imaginary handlebars, that's a sign that I'm riding my virtual bike.
My e-bike is an electric bike. It's kind of like a weak moped with limited range, but with pedals that actually do something. Check out my electric bike blog link on the left.
