Father, husband, writer, cyclist. I have cycled over 85,000 km around Essex County, Ontario since May 2020. I have written about these adventures in my book The Kilominator: www.kilominator.com.
I had a trove 693 photograph slides digitized.
This pic is of my grandfather Edward John Hickey the day he returned to Ireland in 1965 for the first time since emigrating to Canada in 1928. Here he is on the front porch of 912 Lincoln Road, Windsor, Ontario.

Too cold to cycle outside. I tried and had to turn back. My hands were the weak point

I criss-crossed paths with the trash collectors all thru my 2+ hour ride this morning. They were doing a great job under lousy conditions. The cold is not bothering me like it did last year -- unsure why, don't care. Wore my electric socks for the first time this season.

The cold-cold has come, so it was yoga this morning. Have to get psyched up about using the indoor bicycle trainer more than I have been.

Absolutely shite outside so I rode indoors this morning. Glad to round-out the month with a ride, maximizing.

I guess the numbers are starting to mean something, again. Achieving 100,000 km since May 2020 by this time next year is the goal.

On a roll. Even colder this morning, but a great ride nonetheless. Low wind made all the difference.

Negatunity is starting sell, and I'm now standing alongside Kafka on Amazon's bestseller list. Good company, to be sure.

Cold ride this morning, but quite enjoyable. I told myself I will go out so long as there are dry conditions. Terrible wind.
