The most fun part is showing all of my cycling clothing and safety type gear. I love telling them "You do not wear underwear with cycling shorts." Most know this, but I always see the look of shock on some faces. Then I explain why.
Tomorrow is our first group ride. There are 4 guys signed up. I will be way in the back, but that's OK, since I'm the sweep.
OK I know you are all going to hit me for this but......I MISS SNOW!!
Its cooling down slowly here but not fast enough for me and even when winter comes it will be snowless.
I hope you enjoy a ice free ride with the guys.
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
