Set a new personal best for miles on the bike in a month. What’s interesting is that my previous best was last September. Matter of fact three of my top 5 mileage months have been Septembers. Octobers are normally pretty decent, but somewhere in October I get sick and have to shut it down. Four years in a row. This year I’m determined to make it through. I’ll try some new vitamins and bag balm, and see if I can break 400 miles in an October.

Other notes from today, had to take the Harbor Blvd detour again today, still don’t know who thought that was a good idea. A cop pulled someone over in the bike line while going up the overpass, pulling into traffic on an hill, always fun. Also got chased by a stray miniature black dog, the mean little sucker held about 15mph for probably 30 yards. Still don’t know why people like mean little dogs…
