    How about none of the above.

    Toughest challenge for me these days is "getting out the house part" . It's been about 7 weeks since I've thrown my back out. My back is more or less fine now. Did try to go riding about three weeks ago and had a minor set back. And now I've been coughing and feel like I have a herd of pachyderms sitting on my chest. (actually my cats).

    My house doesn't have heat. So when I get cold in bed, I just throw another cat on top of me .

    Brendon: a 15 pounder main coon
    Morgan: another lunker. a rag doll
    lulu: overweight shorthair. Solid as a brick 12 pounder...

    We have pride of cats. Far more than just the three cats.

    I agree with nscrbug (you couldn't have chosen a slightly harder-to-remember username? ) - the first part I'm warming up and enjoying being out and about, the last part I'm looking forward to getting there, the middle part is when I'm most likely to find it challenging.
    Winter riding is much less about badassery and much more about bundle-uppery. - malkin
