Just did a quick 10 miles this morning. What a gorgeous morning in NOrthern California it was!

Just got back from a 15 mile ride. It was a lovely 48 degrees here but sunny and beautiful. My feet started to get a little cold at the end but being outside always beats the trainer.

Did 15.7 miles; it was gorgeous out, 47 and sunny. I had to stop to take the liners out of my light weight full gloves, but other than that, it was non-eventful. Came home and did 2 circuits on the Cyclo-Core DVD, plus the abs and stretching. I don't think I'll be going to the gym tomorrow...

Beatutiful day in the texas hill country. 36 miles with NO arm or leg warmers on for the entire ride! Even managed to stay with the fast boys for the first 5 miles, which helped a lot with the wind. Hubby picked up some country TX BBQ for lunch while he waited for me to come in. As I rode by and smelled the smoker I was sure glad. Normally I'm not real found of TX BBQ, but this stuff was really good, not fatty at all, one of the benefits of riding in the countryside!

33 miles yesterday, 25 miles today, temp in the 40's and sunny. Had on some nice layers so I felt just right. I dragged out my old Thinsulate hiking boots and found they fit just fine in my pedal straps and felt great riding, so my cold feet issue is now solved without buying yet more stuff! DH was happy about that.
I realized I've biked 116 miles in the past 5 days- that's a lot for ME anyways! Feeling kind of sore and beat, but in a good way, and happy.
Going to heat up some fish soup now for dinner!

Finally got the energy and time to do a short ride after MIL's stroke a couple of weeks ago. Between her condition and the drenching we've been getting from the Pineapple Express.....well riding was the last thing on my mind.
Wow...what two weeks off the bikes does to one!
My tights barely fit, and those first 10km or so nearly killed me.
Still...all in all it was a pleasant 40km (25mi) road/trail ride. Mild temps (about 15C/60F), light wind, and no rain for the first time this week.
