    Yeah, well, it wouldn't work quite like that for me. What would happen is I'd get home from the ride, take a shower, have lunch, lie down on the couch to read the paper, fall asleep or get hooked on a What Not to Wear marathon, decide that it's too late to get started on the yard, and end up doing nothing. Again.

    Nope, I'm going to get up bright and early Saturday and tackle those weeds and dead tree limbs! Have a nice ride.

    Ha! That's me almost exactly! That's part of why I usually ride later in the day.

    There's now a chance of rain Saturday morning. At this point, I want to ride. If the weather Saturday morning is windy &/or rainy, though, I'm gonna bag it. Regina, should we trade e-mails or phone calls Friday night or Saturday morning to confirm the ride?
    "How about if we all just try to follow these very simple rules of the road? Drive like the person ahead on the bike is your son/daughter. Ride like the cars are ambulances carrying your loved ones to the emergency room. This should cover everything, unless you are a complete sociopath."
    David Desautels, in a letter to velonews.com

    Random babblings and some stuff to look at.

    Yeah....that's why my yard looks like such a mess, too!
    "Ride early so you have the rest of the day to get everything else done" works fine in theory. It's the practice part that is hard! The pull of the couch after a ride can sometimes be overwhelming!

    Yuck, I saw the weekend forecast. Saturday a.m.'s not looking good.
    Kali, I'll PM you my cell number and email (I'll likely have the cell on vs. checking email Saturday a.m.).
    Edit: Whoops.. Can't PM you Kali, it won't let me. Options?
