About Texbiker.net

Texbiker.net covers the news, events and resources for those interested in Texas bicycling.

My bicycling passion was rekindled in 1979 with a Huffy bicycle from Woolco. From early rides around my neighborhood my enthusiasm grew to tackle my unsupported first century. From there I discovered organized rides all over Texas, races and mountain bikes. Many bikes and miles later the enthusiasm is still there.

Thanks to my late wife, Hazel Marie, for her support over the many years, miles and rides.

My primary bike is the Cervelo Caledonia Rival AXS below. My titanium bike is the Lynskey Helix titanium. My newest bike is a Canyon Endurace CF 7 Rival eTap.

We Interrupt This Month…

Texbiker.net Posted on June 13, 2010 by Rick AnkrumJune 13, 2010

My biking plans for June were interrupted by an unplanned visit to the hospital. Looks like things are turning better and I should be back on the road in a couple of days.

After several doctor consultations and tests my problem appears to solved itself when I stopped eating since Thursday. An all liquid diet changes the way you look at food.

More about this later.

6 Days In A Row – June 9th Bike Ride

Texbiker.net Posted on June 9, 2010 by Rick AnkrumJune 9, 2010

Normally I do not ride so days in a row but this week has presented the opportunity to ride so I took it. tomorrow will be the last day in the streak. A rest day is in order. June is prime time for daylight in the evening; the days are still getting longer until the first day of Summer later in the month. My goal is to get over 2700 miles for the year by the end of June.

Last Saturday evening we finally got to pick ripe blueberries. 7 pounds to be exact. The bushes were loaded and the berries were sweet. I could go again this weekend. Don’t know if I can convince my wife though.

Today’s weather was drier than yesterday, no monsoon rain around here but the counties to north of us got a pounding. This evening’s temperature was 88 degrees, mostly cloudy, and a stiff 13 mph SSE wind. The wind reminded me that a rest day is needed. No power going into the wind.

Today’s ride statistics:

  • miles = 27.05
  • riding time = 1:49:54
  • average pace = 4:04 min/mile
  • average speed = 14.8 mph
  • max speed = 20.5 mph
  • average cadence = 78.1 rpm
  • max cadence = 107 rpm
  • climb 183 ft., descend 224 ft., max elevation 102 ft.
  • June miles 218.31
  • YTD miles 2259.06
