    I am taking a weekend class this weekend. Well, it's the first weekend; the last one is in a month. The time is going fast, but it's hard being in a room with no windows. I ran yesterday (class started at 5 on Fri. night), but today I got home at 5 PM and although I had all intentions of riding, I just couldn't do it. It was 44 and cloudy, raw, and windy. It would have taken me at least a half hour to change into cold weather gear, get my bike ready, check the lights, etc. I took a 2.5 mile walk in my street clothes and running shoes. At least it's uphill. My quads are killing from running yesterday.
    I relaxed with some good rose wine and dinner. Ready for bed and one more day of class.

    I need to convince myself to go to bed early. We're meeting at 5:45 am, starting time is 7. Let's hope my feet survive!

    I did a workout yesterday for the first time in a long time, it was excellent! I'd forgotten how good of a stress reliever exercise can be!

    Gorgeous! But sadly only has 259 miles on the clock. If I don't ride it more next summer it's going up for sale, it's too great a bike to languish in the garage.

    So...how's the Duc????

    I actually slept last night. I can't even remember the last time I slep that well. It has probably been about 6-8 months.
