    Even with the injury, Zoomy was a biking and running machine!

    You've definitely "earned" that new bike!

    Yay for you! And it's awesome that you are back searching for another bike!

    I long for the day when I am no longer a noob, but I will probably always feel a bit noobish. Mainly because I always have something to learn. But maybe in a year or so, I will figure it out.

    Nah, if always having something new to learn = noob, then I will always be one. I don't ever want to get to the point where there is nothing new. That wouldn't be any fun.

    +1,000 on this! Before my injury I have learned a great deal on the bike this year - and one of the biggest is just how much I have yet to learn

    *snort* something else we have in common. It's why I will not be sucked into 'cross, actually.

    Now the real question is, can you swim? Tri is a fun addiction!

    And congrats on all the cycling and running accomplishments this year!

    Thanks! Nah, I have little interest in swimming. I'd have to do most of my workouts in a pool, since Winter seems to last about 6 months in these parts. Nearest pool is almost a half hour away and $$ to use (YMCA). We have at least 3 duathlons within an hour of me, so that's what I have my sights set on next year.

    Not sure why 'cross doesn't scare me. I think it's because there are fewer trees to plow into.
