Ride home for Monday 31 Jan

No ride in today as the bike was on the back of the car to be taken to the bike shop. Bike was fixed with a bunch of new spokes for $10 straight away - one of the benefits of cycling in winter is there's always someone at the local bike shop with time to fix problems!

Ride home was fun. Rode the trail across the Commons, which was nicely snowed over, leading to some fun fishtailing. Realised halfway home that I hadn't put oil on the chain, so dropped into low gear and pedalled slowly to try to minimise the impact.

Distance logged: 13.648km
Time: 49:47
Average speed: 16.4km/hr
Max speed: 66.4km/hr (probably a misreading)
Temperature: -8C to -12C
