Cross-training

I rode!!!! I did about 24 miles. It was pretty nice out. I was alone and hadn't ridden for a few days, so I took it easy.

I was going to do my big hills, but when I got to the street where I turn to go down (which you gotta do before you can climb back up ), I had to get off my bike to cross a sheet of ice. I decided not to find out what a steep ice covered downhill fall feels like. Even though it was above freezing, the hills are steep, so the ice melts to a certain point, a puddle forms, then freezes again where the "sun don't shine". Glad I didn't learn this the hard way!

Tomorrow we're in for a treat--it's going to be around 50º! It hasn't been that warm in weeks! Of course, winds will be 20-30mph, but I'm not complaining.

Wait...isn't today the 14th?

It was sunny and 80 degrees here today. Went for a very pleasant ride after not having ridden for two weeks. Tried out some new shorts I got on sale for $10 a few weeks ago -- Trek WSD Club Shorts. They were okay, but not nearly as comfy as my Mt. Borah underliners. But for 10 bucks, I can't complain.

Too many scary ice patches around here to even think about riding.

Today was 45 degrees with a little sun. I rode 15 miles or so. Best part was a beautiful sunset.

I went for a 4 mile walk on the road because the trails are full of downed trees and falling ice. Of course tomorrow, when it will be 50 out, I will be in my last classes of the semester. Plus, my bike went up on the trainer Saturday, when I was at spin class (a surprise from my husband).
I guess I could jump on the Jamis for a quick spin at 9 AM, but that would be pushing it for time.

Rode 23.66 miles with DH on my tuned up road bike. It feels like new again! It recently got a new cassette, chain, bar tape and general tightening up including the loose headset. Temps were ok, but there were patches of ice. I had to walk over the same one Redrhodie mentioned above.
