So we stayed over in Bethlehem after the Valentine's Day and I figured I would bring my gravel bike for the wider tires and better traction. About a mile from the hotel, I stopped to take a photo by wife's Alma Mater and when passing from the street to the sidewalk, black ice took me down pretty hard on my ribs. So, did I go back to the hotel. . .

I rode the rest of the way to Muddy Waters in Asbury (not that Asbury) and it was a pretty good restaurant. Icing the ribs now.

A very brief ride at Chimney Rock that was not quite desirable, so we left and went to Lewis Morris.

Pro-tip : Gloves. They’re not just for winter riding. 😉

Lewis Morris was a bitch today. All that awesomeness slipped away. Picture is of my lame-ass, second attempt of making sour dough bread. Looks pretty, tasted bland, no sour.

You can always drop loaves off here if you need a tester 👀

I've been emailing my district's senator since the ebike bill was passed. That changes today. I found out he has an office in town.

The township clears this area out at least once a year. Went in to check it out.

Please document riding your eBike to his office and let us know how it goes 😛

Shoulders were so salty it was like riding on a tortilla chip.

I apologize for having this type of ADHD. Finished all the rest of the NYC Badges in a single push.

And I unlocked the Cervelo S5 and 808 wheels 💕

Had a day off planned for something else that got canceled but since it was gonna be 45-50F out and because our new vacation policy doesn’t limit the precise number of days I took off anyway so I could ride.

Met up with the WFH crew and we did some hard random efforts out towards Califon felt good just a few days after my metric Saturday. Rode alongside the Columbia trail it’s still FatBike only terrain for sure.

Started out cloudy and damp and it really warmed up and the sun was strong felt great. Warm enough to wear leg warmers and not winter bibs. If I had more time would have extended it more my other buddy did a metric. Glad to get out on such a nice day.
