I’ve decided to permanently change the Harrah Loop I use. This is part of my effort to make my typical rides longer than 30 miles (48km) by default. In theory, the Harrah Loop now starts near my home at SE … Continue reading →

Terminal Notes

Posted on July 13, 2015 by ehurst

The title is merely my dark sense of humor: I’m making some necessary adjustments in my computer ministry. I’ll help you with Win7 and Vista. I’ll give you some limited help with Win8. I’ll help you a lot with running … Continue reading →

Photolog 10: More on Draper

Posted on July 11, 2015 by ehurst

Today’s ride was the typical Draper Loop. It’s nothing special, but during the summer, it means facing the headwinds on the outbound leg, and getting a tailwind boost on the way back when I’m tired. I rode out on Hiwasee … Continue reading →

Photolog 9: Extended Harrah Loop

Posted on July 2, 2015 by ehurst

Today we explore. This is essentially the Harrah Loop but we add a couple miles north and see where that takes us. (Reminder: it’s pronounced “hair’-uh”.) This should provide an adequate test of my work on the Diamondback Edgewood bike. … Continue reading →

Fixing the Diamondback Bike

Posted on July 1, 2015 by ehurst

This is a frivolous post on bicycle hardware, so you can ignore it. Behold, my Diamondback in all her glory. The other day I was feeling energetic and I went out and got the front wheel for this thing. After … Continue reading →

Posted on June 23, 2015 by ehurst

Today is a rather long trek over two different official bike trails. But it’s about ten miles just getting to the starting line of the first one. If this works out, I’ll ride straight west on SE 29th to the … Continue reading →

Posted on June 23, 2015 by ehurst

Photo Log 7: Midwest City

Posted on June 16, 2015 by ehurst

Not many pictures today; bummer. It should have been simple enough. I was going to ride west on SE 29th into Midwest City, around Tinker AFB and down to the bicycle entrance to Draper Lake. The whole trip would be … Continue reading →

Photo Log 6: Almost Thunderbird

Posted on June 13, 2015 by ehurst

We’ll mark this up as “good training” again because I couldn’t get to the destination. This route is more about mental discipline than physical. It’s tough enough, but aside from a jog at the start and end, it’s one long … Continue reading →

Photo Log 5: Brutal Loop

Posted on June 11, 2015 by ehurst

No pain, no gain. Today we cross over into Cleveland County to the south and visit the nastiest hills in my area. The baddest climbs are on Hiwasee Road south of where I reside, but we have to take a … Continue reading →
