Distance: 19.8
Time: 1:03
Average Speed: 19
Notes: Explored the Skunk Creek trail to the west. Rode past Rio Salado Park and then came up the other side. Took a spur out to 91st & Greenway then back and another spur up to Bell & 101 and back. Ultimately crossed bridge back to Rio Salado Park and back home. Felt good after a long break. Now I just need to stretch so I won't be sore tonight and do it again tomorrow.

White Tanks
Distance: 11.5
Fellow Riders: Mike
Notes: After a couple of weeks off due to a softball injury I finally climbed back on the bike this morning. It was my first time at White Tanks in ages. Mike and I did the technical loop twice but only had one switchback climb in us. As much as I love the downhill after the switchbacks I just didn't have the energy to go up again.

Road Ride
Distance: 17.3
Average Speed: 20.2
Notes: Went out for a late afternoon ride. Felt good and pushed hard, was able to maintain an average of over 20 mph on a level road. Started cramping a little on the way back but was able to avoid stopping.

Road Ride to Stetson Valley
Distance: 15.3
Average Speed: 19.1
Top Speed: 40.2
Notes: Rode up and over the hill between Deer Valley and Pinnacle Peak. Continued north on 55th Avenue and rode past Deem Park hooked up with Stetson Valley Parkway until it dead-ended. It is beautiful up there with all of the hills around. There is a gravel bike path up in that area that it would be fun to try on the mountain bike. Not that it would be a challenge mountain bike excursion, but it would be fun to explore what's there. I'm curious if it goes up and over to where Bob & Kathy live. On the way back down the hill by Thunderbird Park I hit 40.2. I probably could get a little faster but I'm paranoid about wiping out and getting run over.
