🚴♂️ Long Ride and Challenging Elevations
Yesterday, I completed a brisk ride covering 62.21 km, with 12.77 km of new territory. The route featured significantly more elevation gain compared to the previous 40 km ride, providing a solid workout for the legs.
📊 Squadrats Updates
There were notable developments in Squadrats:
- 12 new squares added.
- The Yard expanded by ten squares.
- Übersquadrat (Big Box) increased to a 11×11 grid.
- Squadratinhos increased by 112, totaling 2,083.
However, Yardinho hasn’t expanded, and Übersquadratinho remains at a 3×3 grid, indicating challenges in less densely populated areas.
📈 Current Squadrats Stats
- Squadrats: 192
- Yard: 118
- Übersquadrat: 11×11
The next goal is to achieve a 12×12 Big Box, requiring one more square. The southern and western areas are currently limiting progress, but plans are in place to address these in upcoming rides.
☔ Upcoming Rides and Weather Forecast
The weather forecast predicts rain for the weekend and the following week. Tomorrow, Friday, includes a summer theater outing, but subsequent long rides will depend on the weather. With daily rain expected from Saturday to the next Saturday, ride plans will need to be adjusted accordingly.
🦵 Post-Ride Recovery
The legs still feel fatigued after yesterday’s ride, indicating a beneficial training effect.
