What it has all been about.

What it has all been about.

Virtually nothing has been unaffected by COVID-19

I’ve been trying to ride at least 50 miles a week in preparation for the 2020 Conquer the Coast bicycle ride.
Unfortunately, as with most things in life, the Conquer the Coast event has been cancelled due to the worldwide COVID-19 pandemic.
Nevertheless a “Virtual” alternative has been mooted. Anyone can enter and complete the course of their choice to qualify for “Conquer the Coast 2020”
Of course I registered to complete the course even although I could not ride over the Harbor Bridge (which is my main attraction to the event).
Here is a link to the video of my journey:

Week beginning September 6th, 2020

Looking towards Fulton Beach Road, TX

Now heading into the week ending September 12th, the scheduled date for Conquer the Coast 2020, had it not been cancelled due to COVID-19.
Dang but I’m not having much luck entering this event!
This is the 4th year I’ve attempted to register for it and I’ve only succeeded in riding it once!
… on the other hand …
