barb... sending T's and P's for your dad... hope he will recover OK... my mom had a major surgery last October... 3 vertebrae fused in her neck... and recovered at my place... it was nerveracking and exhausting. Took her a while to be stable enough to do basic things alone... like using the bathroom. She is doing great now and I'm soooooo glad she was able to stay with me to recuperate...

Its 58 here today, partly cloudy still a great day to ride and here I am at work.

Tomorrow it will be in the 40's with a chance of flurries, Friday- I am off on fridays- sunny and 39 Sat. 47 and Sun. Rain. Sat may work if it reaches 47, I have a hard time staying warm in anything under upper 50's, plus my eyes water. grumble gripe moan.

We had 4 days of 60 deg here last week and I had to have gone out riding the night before. I got a cold and had to rest it all off. It was 30 the day I got better.
At least it was 60 for a lunch ride today, though I literally had to outrun a cold front thunderhead to get back to work dry now it's 23 summer will come. So will the races

I hear ya---I felt that same pain on Tuesday and Wednesday when the DC metro area was having spring-like temps. Irony of all, I called in sick to work because I have the flu, so even though I was at home, I felt too lousy to ride (still feel lousy). Try to think on the positive side: you don't have this awful bug that's making the rounds and if you bundled up a little, you still could get out there.

We were in the 60's on Tuesday as well. I pulled in some comp-time and went for a 3 lovely 3 hour ride (on the road; the trails are still too muddy).

Ok, I'll shut up now....

sure go ahead and rub it in yesterday was 58 today is 41 plus I feel like I am getting my chest cold back, it has been hanging around for 2 weeks now, felt like it was ending, now today I am back to a funny feeling in my chest and coughing.

I may take a few days off and do just a little pedaling on the trainer, I have to get rid of this, only 8 weeks until my DU

Whew...Dad is back at his place. Son is at a friends but it is 30 out and a really cold wind is blowing .

I compromised and brought my bike in for the long overdue purchase of clipless pedals. I'm sure more falling down stories will follow.
