Fort Ebey State Park – Not Just For Beginner’s!

Well, I just recently got to go on my first ride since coming home from Rio. I chose to go to Fort Ebey and do a little Mountain Bike Ride. My trip coming home from six weeks of work was something else. I flew home which took about 15 hours total. Then I picked up a taxi ride to the Penske truck rental, rented a truck, packed the garage up and headed home from Houston.

The trip took me 3 days and close to 3,000 miles. Now that all that is over, I can go back to riding every day. Today was the start. I used my new Sidi MTB shoes, Bontrager clipless pedals and of course a new saddle. I went for a short ride to make all the adjustments that were needed after the bike had been boxed up for 2 1/2 month’s. Surprisingly, I only had to adjust the seat height a couple of times. Here is a video of my stats while riding. They were taken using my Garmin 405:

I wanted to also let you know that I just purchased a new helmet camera setup to be able to bring you killer videos of my rides and the rides I do with the local bike club. Stay tuned for that. Tomorrow, I will go for a 20 mile road bike training ride followed by a 60 mile ride from Coupeville, Wa. to Stanwood, Wa. on Thursday. I’ll post after the rides. Later!
