<\/p>\nSo i started cycling in december and managed to put in 300 miles in my first month.\u00a0 something i never even thought was possible. What helped keep me engage was the strava app as it appeals to my competitive spirit, and using the latest technology to monitor and measure my biofeedback, learning about all the health variables and watching there progression over time also helped keep me motivated, most fasinating was learning about the heart rate variable and all that it entails.\u00a0 so in 2019 i completed lofty rides that i never thought was even possible for myself.<\/p>\n
laguna niguel to oceanside<\/p>\n
riding for 9 miles on the\u00a0 freeway was interesting to say the least.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
laguna niguel to newport beach<\/p>\n
great network of bike trails from irvine all the way to newport, i plan to do a “there and back” trip this month some time.<\/p>\n
