This occurs in the afternoon, and it stays a lot cooler in the morning. So I\u2019ve been doing all my strength training and riding earlier. I\u2019ve had several good rides including up in the hills East of Gilroy and out and back on Coyote Lake Rd with my Tuesday group. I\u2019m pleased to be able to do longer rides on my upright with no SI joint or sciatica issues, including standing up to pedal for longer. I\u2019ve also been taking my recumbent on some longer cruises.<\/p>\n<p>As I mentioned a couple of weeks ago I am concentrating on \u201cbase training\u201d during my riding and had been bumping up the volume a bit. I did some rides of 3 1\/2 to 4 hours and decided I don\u2019t enjoy exceeding 3 hours (which I now do once a week) so I\u2019ve cut back a bit. But I still get plenty enough riding in to \u201cbuild a base\u201d. I\u2019ll keep this up for a couple of more weeks and then repeat the <a href=\"https:\/\/bionicoldguy.home.blog\/2025\/07\/21\/good-week-of-riding\/\">MAF test<\/a> to see if my aerobic function is improving.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"12779\"
