Twitter It!Super Saturday Single Speeding 56.7 Miles
Sunday, June 14th, 2009Saturday was one hell of a ride or should I say rides. It started out really cloudy so I waited until after noon to jump on my single speed and hit the road.
I headed downtown on my normal rout taking the green belt to Grand. Then jumping over to Grays Lake and around the back side of downtown to El Bait Shop. I had a big plate of nachos, a stout, a porter, and a pale ale. After that I jumped back on my bike and headed back home. Here is the full rout. Total miles was 29.1. There are a few photos from my iPhone so zoom in for a closer look and click on the icons.
After making it back home I was pretty spent. I crashed for a few hours. After I woke up I was planning to meet up with Justin and Sam downtown. But I decided to head over to the Beaverdale Live street party. The Josh Davis Band was playing and I have not see them play in a while. So about 7:30 I threw caution to the wind, jumped on my single speed, and started pedaling to Beaverdale. I met up with a few friends and had a few beers. But the time I left it was almost 11:00. Just a few blocks from Beaverdale Justin and Sam called and said they were downtown still. Against my better judgement I decided to reverse directions and head west to downtown. Fueled by Coors Light and my trusty $100 single speed I bought off eBay I was on my way.
After Justin guided me to Shorty’s we had a Fat Tire and decided to head out. I follow Sam from downtown back to the West Side. For some reason Sam decided to take me through the back side of Denmans. I am on a road bike by the way. Sam is on a mountain bike. It was crazy muddy. I turned into a big mistake. Sam must have fell 6 times. I pretty much ran my bike the entire way. When we finally came out of Denmans over by Valley Junction I was covered in mud. Sam and I parted ways as he took more back road muddy trails and I stuck to the street.
After that I was motoring. Now fueled by the thoughts to being able to crawl into my bed and sleep. The streets were pretty empty and it was a little euphoric riding after 1 AM in the morning through the street of West Des Moines. I finally made it home at 1:30 AM. I had to stop twice to tighten my crank. That was a total bummer. I thought I fixed that but I guess not.
Here is the GPS track from the PM ride. Total miles was 27.6 mile. Zoom into the map and click on some of the icons for a few photos.
Total miles for the day was 56.7 miles. Yeeeehaaa!
Today my legs are pretty beat. I am happy that my Swobo will be delivered on Monday. Next up is a century in the goal on the new bike!
