Another Trip Around Haines Point
Did another two laps around Haines Point again tonight - the same ride as Tuesday night, except I didn't get lost in the middle and came straight home after, so it was shorter.
- Total Distance: 11.88 mi
- Average Speed: 12 mph
- Max Speed: 65.9 mph (might be a fluke with my cyclometer, but I doubt it)
- Total Ride Time: 58 minutes
- Calories Burned: about 600
Not bad. And it may be TMI, but I can pedal a lot longer than I can sit on a bike saddle. I've got low-end padded bike shorts, and I'm wondering if it would be worth investing in a better pair to make the ride more comfortable.

Keep up the good rides! As

As for shorts, I've never had particular trouble, but I'd look at different seat sizes & styles, too.
I sometimes get bizarre
I sometimes get bizarre readings of 80mph when I go past one of those electric power station thingies in South Arlington. I assume there's some sort of magnetic field that's throwing it off. Alternatively, you are a better cyclist than me and you really are going 65.9mph.
I can't believe you actually wear diaper shorts and want to invest in a 'better pair'! That's not healthy, and I think you should seek help.
"Diaper shorts"? I probably
"Diaper shorts"? I probably should have clarified - I wear bike shorts UNDERNEATH regular gym shorts. I don't think anyone wants to see my ass in spandex.
