Swift Saturday Saddling

  • June 5, 2021

I could not be happier with the climate today. There was outstanding post-rain Saturday morning weather, perfect for a nice comfy ride, especially when I was feeling really motivated to ride ride and ride.

During the upstream leg of the ride there was little to no wind, but downstream on the return it was all headwinds all the way. The entire. ride. back. Nevertheless, the wind felt wonderful and made the temperature easier to deal with as it was starting to get fairly warm and humid.

Since I had to take Friday off as a recovery day due to non-stop rain, my legs felt really good today. I did not feel like I lost endurance or motivations, nor did I tire out as quick as other days. What I really need to do is keep pumping out these daily 50k’s to build that endurance, and take it to the next level.

Now that I got a nice ride out of the way, it is time to go enjoy the weekend💪🏼😊

Well look at that! After all the crazy rain the last 36-ish hours, even all through this morning, a sudden turn of events has the sky blasting blue over the western side of Tokyo 23! Sometime around 11:30am to noon the sky turned a bright ocean shade of blue, and the rain stopped storming down upon the neighborhood. This was the chance I had been secretly waiting on, and as luck would have it, I now was faced with an opportunity to finally hit the streets!

Monday Morning Motivational Meditation

  • June 21, 2021
It felt a bit peculiar riding for a second time in less than twenty-four hours, not really providing any convincing amount of recovery time for my body, but the weather was too comfortable to pass up. After awaking at 4:15am, for a split second I considered heading back in bed and using the recovery time as an excuse for not heading out. But I quickly brushed that nonsense aside and commenced my pre-ride ritual.
