    I saw your red X over at BJ and hoped you'd come on line and say what was up.

    Hope you heal up quickly!

    Oh, no, sorry about the crash, Tater!

    We rode. J and I left the house together, me pulling the trailer. We split up when we got to the bike trail and he rode on ahead. Penny and I did 13 miles to the park where we all usually picnic; he turned back around 25-ish miles and three off-trail climbs. We ate lunch together, and then I had him switch the trailer hitch to his bike (he wasn't riding his trailer-hauler) because Penny had gotten a little too much sun and I thought we needed to get home a bit faster.

    Which was a good thing, because although I felt great on the ride I had body aches and chills as soon as we got home. We thought maybe I had just overdone it, but no, I am sick, and so is Penny. That probably nixes riding for the rest of the week. Pfft.

    Hey Salsa - did you do Lake Washington last weekend too? We were taking some prospective members around again when a pair of tandems came by. We were on the east side of the lake, headed north.

    Tater! Xrays So sorry. Glad you're ok. Hope they can fix your bike quickly.

    Xeney: Ditto. I thought I missed my husband's cough/congestion thing he had this last week. However, as I crested a hill I usually cruise up--I realize I was gasping and had to stop. Guess I'll take it easy this afternoon. Hope you're doing OK (Chicken soup, lot's of Vitamin C and fluids!)

    No, last weekend we did a hike at Mt. Baker. The weekend before that, though, we did a Mercer Island/Bellevue/Yarrow Point/Kirkland/Finn Hill kind of loop on the tandem. I saw a bunch of Group Health team members both times and I keep thinking we're seeing you but never have enough time to be sure!

    Tater, so sorry about your crash.

    could have been two weeks ago.... south end rides all run together after a while, and we were doing Sunday Women's rides for the last few weekends...
