Moooove On! 24 Aug 2013 | 10:22 pm
We had something of a delay on the way back from Fair Grove yesterday. Other than the “bovine interruptus of tandem” incident, the rest of the ride was pretty uneventful. Because I’m feeling lazy, the...
Underwhelmed 22 Aug 2013 | 10:30 pm
I used to tell my kids to not get their hopes up, and I guess I may have been little guilty of that myself! That’s what happened as a result of this post (my hopes, I mean). Then, last week I not...
A good morning for ….. 22 Aug 2013 | 03:37 am
It was a marvelous morning for a run. And for a bike ride. And apparently, also for deer….. God bless… TW
The long way to work 21 Aug 2013 | 03:57 am
I ask you. Is it any wonder that I had a hard time making myself go to work this morning? It was absolutely delightful out there, and I obviously took the long way in. The only problem with that ...
The long way to lunch 19 Aug 2013 | 10:38 pm
I guess we deserved a lazy Saturday for a change. When Pam asked on Friday what we were going to do, my response was simply, “Well, I would like to ride at least thirty miles”. With that, we didn...
Normal? 17 Aug 2013 | 03:16 am
Whew! Getting back to normal after a vacation is hard! Now that the week is nearly over, I think I’m finally getting there. Work has been a zoo. Home has been a zoo. My mind has been mush, but I ...
It’s all downhill from here 13 Aug 2013 | 06:36 am
Or at least it was after 30 miles! I was kind of looking forward to the final day of CRMBT all week. I mean, just look at that elevation profile! Once you make it over the summit of Cameron Pass at...
Short but Glorious 10 Aug 2013 | 05:10 am
Since Friday’s ride had to go back over the top of Rabbit Ears Pass, it afforded a chance to see what I missed going downhill while I was speeding downhill on Wednesday. I found that I missed a real...
Zoom, Zoom (The good kind) 9 Aug 2013 | 07:09 am
Wow! Wednesday’s descent of Rabbit Ears Pass was perhaps the best mountain descent I’ve done in my limited opportunities to ride in the mountains! Twelve solid miles of cruising between 33 & 38 mph ...
Some days are just grumpy 7 Aug 2013 | 06:57 am
Huh? How can a beautiful day in the mountains be a grumpy day? That seems like heresy! It just shouldn’t be…. Actually, parts of Tuesday’s 91 miles were awesome, but others were not so much. Let’...
