The last monday of april...

Okay, it was a good day, sunny and warm, had the bike out. I've gotten kinda tired of the scenery running the Alki loop, so I decided it was a good day to throw the bike in the truck and head out to Lake Washington. I stopped by Performance Bike to pick up a little attachment that I bolted to my truck box that allows me to detach the front tire, and pop the fork into a hard point instead of having to lay the bike down. There is also a hard point to attach my locking cable... :D Anyway, it was good being back on the bike with a change in scenery, well, all that I did see of it... Here are the numbers

Distance 7.48 miles
Time 23.30
Avg Speed 19.2
Top Speed 30.6
Peak Climb 158ft

It's a really fast and flat course that you can mash through fairly quickly, the only tricky part was a quick climb in the middle up through Seward Park to the parking lots on top, then back down. I liked it, it was a good change of pace.

Oh, and here's a kick in my bad knee... The Pass is staying open for another weekend!!! Well, I guess I can't really complain, there's plenty of snow, and I'm riding on it... :D
