    Kind of a weird ride today. From the start my legs felt heavy and I didn't feel like I was maintaining a good speed overall so I felt my pace would be way down. It turned out ok I guess. Today's wo... read more

    First weightlifting session in years. I used pretty light weights so that I didn't kill myself and still be able to walk tomorrow. Maybe. :-)

      I've found the best cure for it is to go right back and do another set of weights. If you wait for the soreness to go away on it's own, it will feel like forever.

      I was Cyndi. I rolled out of the garage at 5:30. While getting my lunch out of the fridge after showering I noticed that it had started raining. I must have just missed it.

    alright Twin Lakes Loop 5.21 mi 00:24 13.3mph pace

    Had to cut the ride short due to some very dangerous fog. It wasn't bad at my place but as soon as I crossed under JTB going south it was very thick.

      Good call. Light fog can be fun to bike in (especially at dawn), but heavy fog is scary.

    First ride of many in 2012. Felt good to ride even though I did suffer a bit due to the stiff north wind. Gotta ride the ride though.
