I knew I wouldn&#8217;t ride early because I volunteered to work an estate sale from 9 to 11. While I was working I got a text message that the electricity was off at my home. Maybe it would be fixed by the time I got back home. In the meantime rain moved in most likely dooming road biking today. I got home around 11:30 and the electricity was still off. Zwifting was not possible. Rather than sit around waiting for the electricity to come back on I ran some errands. When I returned home I pressed the garage door opener button and the door went up. Electricity was back on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It took awhile to get my computer up and running for some reason. Windows 10 wanted to make some changes. I got the computer fixed. Then I checked the Zwift Companion app to see if there were any interesting events. I didn&#8217;t see any so I decided to create a meetup with me and a random person who follows me. I went to the worlds and chose Makuri Islands. Suki&#8217;s Playground caught my attention because the previous attempt on the route was riddled with technical problems. Rather than distance I set the meetup for 45 minutes starting at 2:30 PM. It&#8217;s been some time since I created a meetup but it went well. As I waited to start another person moved beside me but it wasn&#8217;t the person I invited. No problem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Suki&#8217;s Playground covers 11.5 miles with no lead-in. Each lap climbs 492 feet. <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/zwiftinsider.com\/route\/sukis-playground\/\">ZwiftInsider.com <\/a><\/strong>has more details. With 45 minutes I rode 13.29 miles and climbed 518 feet. Some of the climbs were steep slowing me to single digit speeds but I still passed a few riders and some passed me. My legs felt good. Yesterday I aired up the tires on my Blue Norcross AL bike that I use with my Wahoo Kickr Snap trainer. Not sure if that impacted my ride. I also aired up the tires on my other bikes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I recorded a personal record in Strava, <strong>PR<\/strong>\u00a0on\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.strava.com\/activities\/6493120251\/segments\/2915006859066582180\">Farmland Flats CW<\/a>\u00a0(7:26).
