Exercise?
Not really, do I look like I exercise? To become averagely active, in 2012 I took up bike riding, sticking as much as possible to paths like the Saucon Rail Trail and flat terrain around Center Valley, Goodman and Hellertown. In 2015 my biking mentor Heather decided it was time to drag my tail up big bumps like South Mountain and Chestnut Hill, of all places. Before long I was doing group rides with the Wheelmen and Genesis. I’m not a particularly strong rider, C+ at best - for big hills like Sally Ann and Centennial I am always last to finish the climb.
Fun rides include St. Luke's Hospice, Donut Derby, Gap Gallop, Vello-Valley Vistas, Omaha Corporate Cycling Challenge, and my favorite, Gale’s Tour de Tush.
But mostly I ride solo, averaging 22 miles/ride over the years. To verify if conditions are reasonable and sufficient daylight remains to ride, I check Outside, my personal OpenWeather widget:
