90th outdoor ride of 2022 - Wednesday, 10/5/2022

2022 mileage: 3567.0

This has been a dismal week for my cycling. I took Sunday off, as I frequently do. But then Monday, I was cold and exhausted, and just read and napped instead of riding. Yesterday I had to livestream a funeral from church (a responsibility of my new part-time job there, as Audio Streaming Technician) at 11 a.m., and by the time I was done, I was inexplicably beat, and so took a third straight day off.

Today, then, I was awfully glad to get back to it, and rode the Packard/Platt Square (13.6 miles) in a slow time of 1:58. Additionally, my brakes went out, as they did a few weeks ago during a Sunday afternoon ride with Christy, so once I discovered that, I made my way carefully home, and made plans to take the trike in to have the brakes adjusted. (Fortunately, as this is not a trike-specific issue, I don't need to go the roughly 40 miles to the dealer in Dearborn, but can just take it to Wheels in Motion, the bike shop here in town.)
