I only needed 0.8 of a mile on today’s bike ride to reach my road miles goal of 650 for April. So I decided to ride the Spring Creek Greenway racking up 40.47 miles getting beyond that goal. It all started at 10:48 AM as I rolled out on my Cervelo Caledonia bike and finished at 1:57 PM. Under an overcast sky and upper 70’s it wasn’t too hot and the wind was a modest 9 mph. I figured all of the trees on the greenway would shelter me from some of the wind if it increased. This was my third ride on the greenway to John Pundt Park in 2022. This one was slightly shorter.

So far this week I biked 149.18 miles putting a 200+ mile week in reach with 3 potential biking days left. April now totals 689.6 road miles and 711.52 mile including one Zwift ride.

There weren’t a lot of people on the greenway with cyclists outnumbering other people. Two cars were parked at the I-69 trailhead and maybe 10 at John Pundt Park. On the way back I rode through Jesse Jones parking lot and saw 5 or 6 cars.

The greenway doesn’t require much gear changing with no traffic, no big climbs, and a couple of stop signs. I made 11 RD shifts over the 40.47 mile ride. I rode in the 35×15 2:38:29 out of the total time of 3:08:51 according to the AXS.SRAM.com ride report. Or 36 miles out of the 40.47 total.

Strava went crazy with top results. These are 4 of the total of 10: 2nd fastest time on Greenway Appendix (53s), 3rd fastest time on The Chute (1:23), 3rd fastest time on Logan’s Run (3:26), rd fastest time on 59-MM7.0 (31:48).
