Ride this weekend...
8/01/2005 11:22:00 AM
So D and I were out for some beers at our new favorite bar in town on Saturday night, and I ran into what was quite obviously a cyclist on his way back from a ride (still wearing his spandex, cycling shoes, etc). He was obviously alone, so I asked how his ride was. We got to talking (he was alone and latched on to us, sadly - he was kind of a big tool), but I was able to pick his brain about routes in the area. I asked him where I could find some hills (above see the profile of the ride that I generated today - 2,077 feet of climbing!). I guess he was telling me the truth.
Feeling better today about my "performance" yesterday. I felt pretty sluggish, but this does make me feel a little better about myself.
Eventually I'll get a lot of these maps (or try, anyway) on one of the domains I have registered - likely cyclingstats.com.
Right now I'm playing with Google Maps (got my developer API!), so if you're interested in any progress I may (or may not) be making, you can check that out at www.cyclingsoft.com/gmaps.

where'd you generate the tompo map from again?

Sut - Topo map generated with DeLorme's TopoUSA (we'll call it a wedding gift to myself).
Hutch - you're just jealous!

Was this before or after Dana fell off the unusually small sidewalks?

This was before. :( Damn narrow sidewalks--I thought everything was bigger in Texas!
