In The Soup

Sunday morning, the fog thick as soup and the temperature hovering at 50 degrees. A perfect morning for a winter ride. We did one loop of 13.6 miles and then came home to get ready to travel up the turnpike to celebrate our granddaughter's first birthday.

Doesn't she look advanced for her age?

Well, she's not ready for a bike, but in a pinch a green elephant will do.

If the rain holds off it will be the same riding conditions tomorrow, but by Tuesday they're saying winter will finally arrive for real. Temperatures are predicted down into the teens. I am ready for it.

What"s A Ludwig?

In the news section of one of his early Fredcasts David told the story of one Ludwig from Znnin Poland who at 84 years of age went out for a ride on his bike. To make a longer story short (and you really should listen to the podcast to get all the details) Ludwig ended up in London, England! So I figure if (again, according to the explanation on The Fredcast #1) a Fred is someone who not only rides a bike but is severely attracted to the gadgets and accessories of a certain bike-cultural look (and I guess I'm a Fred without the financial resources to really express my Fredness) then a Ludwig could be anyone over the age of 55 who is not only a Fred, but also loves to just keep riding eating up the miles pretty much unconcerned with speed. Go Ludwig! I'm a Ludwig. Maybe someday I'll figure out podcasting and do a Ludwigcast.
