Ride: Mt. Doug loop
Date: July 9
Distance: 23.68
Cyclists: Mike
A couple of weeks off the bike for a few reasons. We had guests last weekend and spent our time eating and doing seaside activities. Then right after they left our bathroom reno guys showed up. So I finally got out today on my usual loop up through the University and down past Mt. Doug. I'm finding I have little interest in longer rides because I feel too beat up afterwards.
Today the creaking when I apply torque to the pedals got worse. It may be a bottom bracket packing it in. Time for a trip to the bike shop again. The 29er is the bike I ride most often and I've put a lot of kilometers on it over the lst dozen or so years. Thinking of getting a gravel bike and selling the Marin. We'll see.
