333.33 - I'm 1/3 Of The Way To My 1000 KM Goal

This is what my windshield looked like when I dropped the car off at Speedy Glass yesterday.  The new windshield was ordered March 28 and it only just arrived and was ready to be installed on June 13!  I really couldn't use it - seeing out from the driver's seat was pretty tricky.  And the bullseye was leaning in and I was afraid that a good bump might bring it all crashing in.  As I mentioned in an earlier post, an icicle did this.  

In any case I had my bike with me and headed straight for Chester Creek and the bike trail to the Coastal trail.  My normal bike rides are anywhere from 12-16 km (7.5 miles to 10 miles) but I've decided to push that a bit so I reach my 1000 km (about 600 miles) goal for the summer. 

The Coastal trail loop from my house is about 40 km, a lot more than I want to do on any given day, so I just don't get on it too often.  But yesterday reminded me how beautiful it is.

I rode a little past Neptune - about 13 km - and turned around.  (The sun is downtown at 4th and F. I did more on the background of this project a few years ago.)

When I got back I'd gone just under 25 km (15 miles).  I read my book for a while and soon the car was ready.  

The folks at not-so-Speedy Glass were very nice and apologized for the long wait which they attributed to 'supply-chain problems.'

When I got home and added the mileage onto my 2023 bike log, I had exactly 333.33 km.  Precisely 1/3 of the goal.  Though I expect I'll a little further than the 1000 km by the time there's snow.
