No riding for me, sadly. Trial tomorrow, which meant work all weekend.

Oh CA, that is just a sin on a day like today. I am so sorry!

That sucks CA I had to work allll day saturday and we had gorgeous weather here in So Cal.

First I warmed up pre riding the bike course for a tri Im doing next weekend. I would have just kept riding that loop a few times but they had some sort of street luge competition setting up. So I left the lake and went for a nice 28 mile ride on our local river trail.

I am very happy to say my new bike and I celebrated our 100th mile together today

52 miles with a lot of wind - 20-25KT from the east. In the summertime they call it a "sea breeze" which usually means for temps 10o colder than inland. In the wintertime I just call it cold - a bitter cold wind. Did the first mile, and went back home for my balaklava, and glove liners. Would never have survived the ride without them. Cloudy, occasional bursts of sunshine punctuated by gusts that could knock you sideways. On the bright side, I saw 2 foxes (about 3 miles apart). Life is good.

How about a 20km Time Trial DVD on my new trainer? First time I've been on my bike in a month I think. It was haaard, but it felt good later.
