Why do Tour de France cyclists ride their bikes on rest days?

You’re two-thirds of the way into the most gruelling, demanding bike race on earth. You’ve ridden 2,389 kilometres…

Cycled from Vaughan subway station to Holland Marsh, around Holland Marsh, and back to the subway station. About 90kms.

It's hard to get out into the rural area, from downtown #Toronto #Ontario.

The area is filled with large carrot and onion #farms

With the end of AIDS LifeCycle, I'm moving onto doing more local good. I was gonna take a year off, but I've signed up for the NorCal AIDS Cycle, which is a Sacramento based ride with all beneficiaries in Sacramento.
Time to get back on the bike!!!!

Some photos from a day of cycling in the Finnish capital region, 105km all in all. Hot day

I finally got to see (and try) L's new Super Mighty mini cargobike (https://super-bicycles.com/products/super-mighty), we took it for an ambling spin around the city with pains au chocolat and ice creams. I've also been enjoying the basket biking life on my LHT's ATB build.
What a good way to spend a hot Sunday afternoon.

"At the elite level, the idea that thinner is faster is wrong... and I think it's quite damaging”
attitudes had "changed for the better and there was a lot of really well-founded #science-based thinking in #cycling and other #sports about a balanced #diet and a healthy body"
"Some people are naturally very slim and some aren't and you can't force everybody to look the same”
"enjoyment is a really big part of... healthiness” https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cly8v6ezq46o

I was riding along minding my own business on what's a horribly rainy afternoon and it suddenly dawned on me that Gang Starr was a play on the word Gangster. #cycling #hipHop

Iron250 training, week 6.

65km
15km

2/3rds into the ride it occurred to me that I forgot to eat breakfast or take any snacks with me. Typical.

Went for a gravel ride today around 14:00., and it was HOT! Made it up a local killer hill, that I haven't dared try since last summer where I was still suffering from long covid, and had to stop 3-4 times to get up. Today I made it up without stopping, even though HR peaked at 195 bpm, and it was good. I took a break at the beginning and at the end, and at least the break in the beginning was within the #Strava segment, so not sure what my time could have been.

Fahrradtour von Burgbernheim (Bf Wildbad, das ist die Ansbach-Würzburger Strecke) nach Hause über das Zenntal

Heute ging es irgendwie zäh. Wetter drückender als gestern und der Hintern tat auch noch weh was zu einer verkrampften Sitzhaltung geführt hat.

Strecke war aber ganz nett. Wenig los.

Back from a very nice MTB ride with my wife.

Based on a common loop to the #schwarztennAlm with some variations so that we had less road and saw some new locations around #badWiessee and #rottachEgern along the #tegernsee.

I should eat more during cycling. - close to the end I started to feel that my energy was really dropping.

Anyways. Great day.
