I also am welcoming Spring in even if on the calender is not for another week. I am so happy for DST as I am running home to take a short bike ride also. I think we can all feel one anothers excitement.

Sulis, my husband and I were in Utah a few years ago. I think it is a beautiful state. In fact we scuba dived in a crater I think in Park City. I guess if we ever come again, we will need to bring our bikes.

What everyone else said!

Our cycling group had their first official ride on Sunday and it was wonderful! Another ride this afternoon (leaving the office in 30 minutes!). My bike, Godiva, got all spiffied up for the season last weekend with a new headset, saddle & bar tape. She's calling my name....

I rode all last week, but my oh my it was nice to go out today in shorts and a sleeveless jersey! I appreciate my nice warm tights and base layers and shoe covers, but there's nothing like flying along in the summer clothes!

I had my first ride for the season a few days ago. It was so great to get back out there, then the last two days the rain has come in. Oh, well I will live vicariously through you all for a few days I guess. I have a ride planned this weekend so hopefully it will clear up before then.

Indy: Silver and I did 54 miles in the Evansville area. Weather was perfect (but windy)!!!!!

Spring has arrived!!!

I also believe last week was a record mileage week for Silver as well!!!!

Yeah, spring has come to visit for a few days in SD, too. I've been riding the last three days in shorts. Biking leaves me with a light heart and a positive attitude.

Mr. Silver and Silver: Any chance that you're doing the Harmony Hundred in May? That's about as close to Evansville as I'll be this year.....

Spring isn't here to stay on the Jersey shore but FINALLY - today - I had both time and weather cooperating and I could get out for the first real ride out of doors.

I waffled a bit at the beginning, it was still early, damp, I could smell the salt hanging in the air. Was sitting on my bike outside my house thinking it was still a little too chilly (I'm a fair weather rider

) My neighbor came out, she's laughing.. "Just go!!"

So I did.. 25 miles.. sun coming out.. warmth.. total bliss. Saw a couple of girl roadies riding together coming in the opposite direction, we all waved.. HUGE smiles on their faces, I couldn't help but laugh cause I knew I probably had the same smile on mine.

Nice way to begin the season, can't bear the thought of bringing my Girl back down to the basement now. Forecast looks grim for the next week though so.. *sigh* back down we'll go.

Oh! FYI - I kept hearing "Take the lane!!" in my head (from another TE thread) and laughing as I rode through this intersection or that one.
