Just had a nice day out cruising along. Met up with Jay at the Boathouse, went by Elemental Coffee House, Pro Bike and Bike One. Jay took a couple of very cool photos. Cheers

There was severe thunder storms just before I left work today. Lots of rain. I waited till the worst was over but I still had rain almost all the way back home. It was no problem at all. Technically I staid bone dry inside, but there was enough sweat going around. There was a pretty strong SE wind all the way.

Last night I swapped chain rings. The 73t and 54t is now in front.

57.9mi / 93.2km

Had a 20mph head wind coming home. I still made good time though. For some reason the gps made two mistakes. Lap 9 and 12 is way off.

33.9mi / 54.6km

It was hard to get up this morning. So I decided to take it very easy. I kept my heart rate just high enough not to fall back asleep. Lucky for me there was a good tail wind and I made it to work in very good time.

On my way to work this morning I had the second flat on the Big Apples. Turns out to be a tire wire that worked its way through. I did not find it the first time around. I decided to take it as a sign and turned around and went back home.

Greg joined me tonight for a tour around the lakes in his F40. I enjoyed the company and it made me push a little harder tonight. Did a couple of good sprints.

9.3mi / 15.0km

Just a quick trip to Pro Bike.

35.3mi / 56.9km

Went for an easy ride to see if I am over my cold. I felt a little weak but the good news is, it can only get better now. I also tested the live tracking with Instamapper and it seems to work super. What a great service from Instamapper.

72.9mi / 117.3km

This morning was very slow. Legs did not want to move and even the downhills felt like uphills. Things got better though. The ride back started off hard but by the end the legs felt good and strong.

One super weekend. I was off on Friday so I took the Pterovélo to Tulsa. (127.7mile) I felt pretty good the whole way. On 80mi the feet got little sore but I stopped and ate something and it was all good after that. Greg met me outside Tulsa on his F40. Him and his wife was very generous to let me stay with them the weekend and showed me a good time. Saturday we just putted along the river trail and through the neighborhoods for fun. (26.28mi) The legs were a little tired and lacked some performance. Sunday I left at 7:30 in the rain. It hardly ever stopped and slowed me down a bit but all for the good because the legs were a little worn out. The last 25mi back home was a crawl and the knees has had enough. Walked in the door at 18:00

The Pterovélo is back on the road again after two weeks of improvements. We now have much better turn indicators and also added brake lights in the back. The side windows have been replaced and the new wrap looks real good. My fitness unfortunately is down a bit. I started off today with a good 20mph avg but by the end of the ride I was doing 12mph avg. URGH! The turn indicators are working well. The cars notice them now and they are giving me room to move over. What a pleasure to be treated like a vehicle while cycling.

Spent the Saturday at Earth Day Birthday. A small expo that PlanetNicolsHills.org was hosting. I have not cycled for 10 days now and my legs got quite a shock. The new back lights is almost in and then we will be on the road again.

Today was TEDxOKC day! What an amazing day it was. Heard so many speak about their passion, ideas and inventions it was truly mind boggling. Thank you to everybody that made it happen and thank you Ken for getting me a ticket at the last minute.

I got the Pterovélo back from 247 Graphix today and I must say they did a super job. Thanks again guys, I can not stop looking at it. I will post some photos tomorrow.

12.09mi / 19.46km

Went to drop off the Pterovélo at 247 Graphix this afternoon. Shawn is going to put a brand new wrap on the velo and I will also get some advertising on it. Very exited about it. I took the side windows out to be replaced with new ones later on. It also gave me a change to cut the holes for the new and bigger back lights in the shell. Hopefully this weekend I could install some new brake lights and turn signals.
