Anyway- you might need to get some of those "rollers" for winter riding. You can set them up in your house and spin away on your bike! Ask people here about them- that would be one way to at least keep in shape over the snowy wintery months!

I"ve heard about you.....Trek and I were tentmates this year on the SF/LA AIDS ride. (of course all goooooood stuff!)

Look forward to meeting you in the spring here in "sunny" (we hope) California, your old home state!

Lucky you! I don't think I ever tented with "Trek". We weren't a camping family. She had to pretend at camping by lying crosswise under her bed at night. As for rollers ... well, we'll see. "Trek" has a set, and if I ship my bike out rather than park it in the basement for winter, then maybe she'll let me try using them. Otherwise, I've joined a gym and tomorrow I have an appointment to learn how to set up a stationary. Tomorrow afternoon is also the intro to spinning class. I figure I'll do my usual workout between the two and try the spin class for "dessert". It's snowing here now. And tho' the forecast for the weekend is better and I still might get in another scenic ride or two before weather forbids, I figure spinning will have to be the basis for my making it up to 66mi in reasonable time by March. One small compensation for the lack of scenery ... they do have tv's you can watch while you ride the stationary bikes there, and I don't have one in the apartment. So maybe I just have to learn the time of some show I'd really like to follow and then follow it from the saddle.
