Today's tracking via APRS and Ham Radio
Just a short ride today up to Los Cuates Restaurant to meet with Paul N5DBB for our quasi-monthly lunch date. The last time I rode the bike was for our LAST lunch date, exactly a month ago. BAH
Since we work in Albuquerque at the New Mexico Albuquerque Mission (LDS) office, we have neglected our beneficial exercising.
Almost every day I spend 30 minutes to an hour swinging the heavy wood-splitter maul, but that is merely heart-attack stuff: Exert yourself in short violent bursts until you're exhausted, take a few minutes break, and do it over and over again. Instead of feeling energized afterwards, as after a bike ride, I feel like I've been whipped and run over. Oh the Joys of Old Age....
Anyways, it was great to actually saddle up the bike and get in a few miles today. We had 6 INCHES of snow dump on us Monday night, but it was mostly gone the next day, with high winds the next couple days, but today was absolutely fabulous. Just cool enough to keep it enjoyable.
My current scheme is to take the bike to town every workday on the bike rack on the gas-burner vehicle and ride it for an hour or less for exercise and stretch breaks in ABQ. We'll try to stay in touch and let y'all know how that works out.
I forgot the GoPro camera today but nothing interesting happened anyway....
