Day 37, hardly worth blogging about

The only thing that can be said about biking today was that I rode.

It was a nice day, dry, warm, nothing like December is supposed to be.
Julie and I had an invitation to join friends at The Swedish Club for the Swedish Pancake Breakfast that is held on the first Sunday of every month. With the weather being so nice it was an easy call to ride the bikes there.

We rolled down Queen Anne for just over 1 mile.  I probably didn't pedal more than 1 revolution the entire way. ( tough duty, but someone has to do it!) 

After a yummy breakfast and sufficient visitation time we continued down to Mercer, then jogged over to Seattle Center where Julie wanted to attend the Urban Craft Uprising.  There were a lot of crafty people selling, and a lot of crafty people buying.


I used some of my "down time" to change out my rear tube, that had developed a very slow leak. It ended up being a small piece of glass.

After a few hours of "shopping" we rode back up Queen Anne via Taylor Ave.  Julie was pleased that she made it all the way up without stopping.  I've been riding up that way with loaded panniers most recently, and found today's ride up to be very easy.  ;-)

'Tis the season, we had to immediately attend a dinner party near Discovery Park, and while the distance was certainly within range of bicycles, we had a multitude of desert contributions that were not easily transported by bike. We parked the bikes and became motorists.

And so, the sun set on one of the nicest days in Seattle this winter, with a paltry 4 miles of biking.  If there was anything worth noting about today's short ride it was that we had almost 600 ft of climbing.

It was a good day, and good enough to be counted as the 37th consecutive day on the bike.
