2020 will also be known a the year of the wind. Look at those whitecaps blowing in off Lake Ontario! @russell_styles and I made it to the pier, where the Thamesborg was docked. This is a fairly new ship... pretty cool to see something modern in port. After dropping Russ at home, I carried on North for some hills and headwinds. Thankfully, i had a @hornbyorganic Carob Peanut Butter to fuel my legs. Gotta love an 80km ride in December... just dress for it! #iamspecialized #roubaix #myridemyrules #destinationroad #shimano #garmin #pearlizumi #cyclelife #mycyclelife #bellbikehelmets #capturaphoto #captura #ouroshawa #durhamregion #ontario #canada #outdoors #churchoftheskinnytire #strava #stravaphoto #dressforsuccess #fromthepeloton #dressforsurvival #setyoursoulfree #getoutdoors #freshairwontkillyou #freshairsaveslives #getoutside #greatcyclechallenge #gcccanada (at Lakeview Park, Oshawa) https://www.instagram.com/p/CI_wp_iJ8Eh/?igshid=15djnr7qevlzq

@russell_styles and I got a nice morning ride in on the WTF Trail... heading to @cityofoshawa Pier first before going West to Whitby Harbour and Lynde Shores. Lots of people out fishing today for rainbow trout and salmon. A tug was pulling a massive barge out in the shipping channel .. it appeared to be floating over the water at times. Hope you got out to enjoy the beautiful day on the Labour Day long weekend before the rain tomorrow. #iamspecialized #roubaix #myridemyrules #destinationroad #shimano #garmin #castellicanada #cyclelife #mycyclelife #bellbikehelmets #capturaphoto #captura #townofwhitby #ouroshawa #durhamregion #ontario #outdoors #churchoftheskinnytire #strava #stravaphoto #dressforsuccess #fromthepeloton #dressforsurvival #setyoursoulfree #getoutdoors #freshairwontkillyou #freshairsaveslives #getoutside #greatcyclechallenge #gcccanada (at Beach at Lakeview Park, Oshawa) https://www.instagram.com/p/CE0OzvhpJTc/?igshid=1yudrm6d5kdj

@russell_styles and I finally got out for a ride together ... felt like weeks since we did that. Down the @cityofoshawa Creek Trail down to the pier, where we watched the crew unload some of the cargo from "Bluebill". Odd name, considering the ship was painted green and red 😂🤣🤔 The sun 🌞 was shining brightly but the beach wasn't open yet. It looked so peaceful. We then carried on through @darlingtonprovpark, which was NOT peaceful ... there was a long line to get in before 10:00am. We looped back at Holt Road and had a quick stop at the 418 overpass for photos. Perfect start to a Saturday! #RideWithFriends #iamspecialized #roubaix #myridemyrules #destinationroad #shimano #garmin #lapassione #cyclelife #mycyclelife #bellbikehelmets #capturaphoto #captura #ouroshawa #durhamregion #ontario #outdoors #churchoftheskinnytire #strava #stravaphoto #dressforsuccess #fromthepeloton #dressforsurvival #setyoursoulfree #getoutdoors #freshairwontkillyou #freshairsaveslives #getoutside #greatcyclechallenge #gcccanada (at Oshawa, Ontario) https://www.instagram.com/p/CEM5fx5pBiE/?igshid=par8xi64r0xo

I always love this view. It's so good it needs a three frame pano! Swipe ➡️➡️➡️ @russell_styles and I went north for a socially distant adventure on the back roads... took some photos .. interrupted some Turkey vultures feasting on a dead coon ... saw a peacock at the Oshawa Zoo. The zoo is closed .. they had to close their parking lot even because people were packing the lot and not being physically distant. Spectacular 17°c day ... spring is here! But watch your distance ... I'm guessing that tape measure shows how much leeway you get before you're punished for trespassing🤪🤪👿👿👿 #LeColChallenge #Orbea500Challenge #iamspecialized #roubaix #myridemyrules #destinationroad #shimano #garmin #pearlizumi #cyclelife #bellbikehelmets #capturaphoto #captura #whitby #pickering #durhamregion #outdoors #churchoftheskinnytire #strava #stravaphoto #dressforsuccess #fromthepeloton #dressforsurvival #setyoursoulfree #getoutdoors #freshairwontkillyou #freshairsaveslives #getoutside #greatcyclechallenge #gcccanada (at Oshawa, Ontario) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_f6EaHJTTn/?igshid=1txe9uktnc4oz

Very cool and sunny ... beautiful day on a bike with @russell_styles. Russ just set a Personal Record for mileage in a year! Way to go! 😍😍😍👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 @cityofoshawa lakefront is always a nice ride ... two lakers in port. Great ride out through Darlington Park on to Clarington (past the new highway 418) and back via Poshawa. #iamspecialized #roubaix #elite #myridemyrules #destinationroad #shimano #garmin #lapassione #cyclelife #bellbikehelmets #capturaphoto #captura #whitby #ouroshawa #durhamregion #ontario #canada #outdoors #churchoftheskinnytire #strava #stravaphoto #dressforsuccess #fromthepeloton #dressforsurvival #setyoursoulfree #getoutdoors #freshairwontkillyou #freshairsaveslives #getoutside (at Lakeview Park Oshawa Ontario) https://www.instagram.com/p/B4F0iDPA2gv/?igshid=g2n41tf9nncl

2 days of almost 60k rides and legs feel great. So what would get me out of the house for a second ride in less than 24 hours during the hottest time of the hottest day of the year so far? It happens to be this Beauty's birthday today! Happy birthday @russell_styles 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 Thanks to Bill at Bill's Truck Shop for the water! #iamspecialized #roubaix #elite #myridemyrules #destinationroad #shimano #garmin #sugoi #cyclelife #bellbikehelmets #capturaphoto #captura #whitby #ouroshawa #durhamregion #ontario #canada #outdoors #churchoftheskinnytire #strava #stravaphoto #dressforsuccess #dressforsurvival #setyoursoulfree #getoutdoors #freshairwontkillyou #freshairsaveslives #getoutside #greatcyclechallenge #gcccanada (at Oshawa, Ontario) https://www.instagram.com/p/BzjDEzjpw04/?igshid=b6d2qfo1y5rk

Part 2 of a cool Father's Day ride with one of the best dads i know ... @russell_styles! 🙌🏼👊🏼👏🏼 Great ride out to Bond Head. Stopped to watch the tugboats move a laker into port and got to enjoy some of the Oshawa Fiesta Day parade! Not sure what the officers were doing on Taunton but I'll stay out of the way! Over halfway through my @greatcyclechallengecanada target of 750km for June🦵🏼🚴🏼‍♂️ June is "Bike to Work/School" month and Great Cycle Challenge Canada ... so I commuted to work today! I'm riding 750km this month and raising money to support SickKids Foundation and cancer research. Want to donate or join the ride?

Spin the Lakes 2019 is in the books. Great ride ... 104km with 1150m of climbing. Some big, nasty hills but also lovely rollers. Beautiful scenery and nice roads. The weather did NOT cooperate ... were started in a light rain, which stopped for a couple hours, and finished in a torrential downpour. Couldn't see a damn thing. We're definitely coming back next year. Huge thanks to the volunteers and organizers ... friendly faces at each rest stop with lots of drinks and snacks (including cookies 🍪) and a huge shoutout to Natasha, the sweep, who blocked traffic and kept cars away all day. Best $5 shower I've ever had! And thanks to the kitchen staff at Hidden Valley who prepared some really tasty food for 600 riders! Really proud of @kaelscarlett for slogging through and @rwashbr for getting 90km despite double-flatting. The real hero of the day was @russell_styles ... 60 years old, not been on a bike in 2 weeks, and pushing through leg cramps and tiredness to finish with just over 100km. Much love, respect and admiration 😍💪🏼When I get to 60, I want to be like Russ 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 #iamspecialized #roubaix #elite #myridemyrules #destinationroad #shimano #garmin #pearlizumi #cyclelife #bellbikehelmets #capturaphoto #captura #huntsville #muskokas #ontario #canada #outdoors #churchoftheskinnytire #strava #stravaphoto #dressforsuccess #dressforsurvival #setyoursoulfree #getoutdoors #freshairwontkillyou #freshairsaveslives #getoutside #greatcyclechallenge #gcccanada (at Hidden Valley Resort) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bx6NsA1JsYk/?igshid=fuh521bjrndn

Cold, Wind and Rainy bike ride thru Oshawa and Whitby. I guess winter is here 🤔😢😰 Seagulls don't mind and the Lakers are still on the water. The sky is dramatic and edits oh so well. Good thing @russell_styles and I know how to dress for this weather. It's all in the layers! Solid 50km to get the heart pumping. #iamspecialized #roubaix #elite #myridemyrules #destinationroad #shimano #garmin #pearlizumi #cyclelife #bellbikehelmets #capturaphoto #captura #whitby #oshawa #durhamregion #ontario #canada #outdoors #nature #churchoftheskinnytire #strava #stravaphoto #dressforsuccess #dressforsurvival #setyoursoulfree #getoutdoors #freshairwontkillyou #freshairsaveslives #getoutside #greatcyclechallenge #gcccanada (at Whitby, Ontario) https://www.instagram.com/will_prentice/p/BpfKYpHlTTE/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1n7r4ol6u9k3z

Sunsets and snakes, trains and transportation... this ride had it all! @russell_styles and I ride down to Oshawa Pier and then out to Holt Road via the Waterfront Trail. I ran over that poor Garter Snake in the middle of the road, but it survived and slithered away. #iamspecialized #roubaix #elite #myridemyrules #destinationroad #shimano #garmin #cyclelife #bellbikehelmets #capturaphoto #captura #whitby #oshawa #durhamregion #ontario #canada #outdoors #nature #churchoftheskinnytire #strava #stravaphoto #dressforsuccess #dressforsurvival #setyoursoulfree #getoutdoors #freshairwontkillyou #freshairsaveslives #getoutside #greatcyclechallenge #gcccanada (at Oshawa, Ontario)

Another outdoor ride😍😍. A wee bit blustery but otherwise not bad. @russell_styles and I made it to @cityofoshawa Pier and then into a nasty headwind over to Whitby Pier. Swipe right ➡️ I ❤ 😍 💖 the skies today .. so much texture. The sun may have been out but wasn't helping too much 😕 🙃 "Florence Spirit" and "Vectis Pride" were in Port today .. check out the lean on VP ... I wonder if the load has shifted? Captured a beautiful sundog at Whitby. #Norco #NorcoSearch #steelisreal #myridemyrules #destinationgravel #shimano #garmin #cyclelife #bellbikehelmets #capturaphoto #captura #willprentice #whitby #ouroshawa #durhamregion #ontario #outdoors #churchoftheskinnytire #strava #stravaphoto #dressforsuccess #dressforsurvival #setyoursoulfree #getoutdoors #freshairwontkillyou #freshairsaveslives #getoutside #greatcyclechallenge #gcccanada (at Lakeview Park, Oshawa On.) https://www.instagram.com/p/CWgdunqJ2-6/?utm_medium=tumblr

@russell_styles and I had a great ride down to Oshawa pier and out to Courtice Road before it got to dark. @durham_regional_police were out in force on the Oshawa Creek Trail ... 3 cruisers moving the trail at various points and a gentleman being asked questions ... too bad they missed the drug dealers first north. Watched one of the big ships loading steel girders before flying through Darlington Provincial Park and then riding home in the dark. Lights are never optional. #iamspecialized #roubaix #elite #myridemyrules #destinationroad #shimano #garmin #cyclelife #bellbikehelmets #capturaphoto #captura #whitby #oshawa #durhamregion #ontario #canada #outdoors #nature #churchoftheskinnytire #strava #stravaphoto #dressforsuccess #dressforsurvival #setyoursoulfree #getoutdoors #freshairwontkillyou #freshairsaveslives #getoutside #greatcyclechallenge #gcccanada (at Oshawa, Ontario)
