[pianotech] OT - cycling in Grand Rapids?

[Farrell]

Oh good grief Bill. What kind of pace do you ride at (typical cruising speed - flat ground, no wind for tens of miles). It sounds like John Formosa would likely spin circles around me. I typically cruise in the 16 to 18mph range - a couple mph faster if I am drafting other riders.

Or are you the dirt-type?

      John,

      Part of me wishes I was going to the convention, but the physical part of me will be on a cycling trip in the Sierra Nevada!  Have fun, maybe next time we can hook up.  If you ever come out here to the Bay Area for a convention/conference, definitely bring the bike!

      Keep riding

      I'll probably be bringing my road bike to the GR convention. Anyone up for a ride?   


      My average speed right now is about 16+ mph on the hilly roads of north Mississippi. I'll probably be up to 16.5 - 17.0 by July.  Flat roads I could probably do at least 19-20 average. But I don't know for sure since we don't have flat roads here. :-)


      If anyone knows of some good off-road routes in the GR area, I'd be up for that too. Can bring my mountain bike as well.


      Let me know privately at formsma at gmail.com.
