Warmup and gym

Tuesday, 9 August 2016

Just a quick ride to warm up before a gym workout. I would like to develop a few 30-minute and 45-minute routes for this purpose.

This route takes Baristo Road west to Avenida Caballeros, then north to Tahquitz Canyon Road and through the airport access roads. Generally a pretty good route that is mostly flat.

Drugs and gym

Friday, 5 August 2016

Not all my route was recorded well by the Garmin. From home, I ran an errand at the Walgreens pharmacy on East Palm Canyon, then headed to the gym for weight training. Afterward, I rode through Little Beverly Hills to check whether some construction work was happening with heavy equipment I saw being trucked in the evening before. (None in evidence.)
