Ugh. Whatever you got last night has made its way over here. I want to ride, but this particular trail doesn't have the tree windbreaks that the Little Miami trail does...Originally Posted by Catrin

Not with my neck injury, I am not allowed to "hunker down" on the bike. With this wind there is no way that I could maintain the body position on the bike I am supposed to...so it is hiking and, perhaps, the indoor trainer later today. Originally Posted by Owlie

Ummm, no hiking today either...just saw some pretty big limbs getting blown down by wind gusts.
Mother Nature pruning time, not the time to be in the woods.
After lunch will get on the trainer and stream Battlestar Galactica to my tv - finally getting around to watching the new version of that, I refused to watch the remake when it was on the air. Watched the pilot on Netflix last night and got hooked, much to my surprise!

The new BSG rules. I love, love, love that show and wish there was more of it. Originally Posted by Catrin

more surgery today. and it's a doozy.
to whom it may concern:
I know you have enjoyed teaching these tough lessons to my DH. Enough is enough. Do you think you could turn on that little light at the end of the tunnel so my DH can be repaired today and walk out of that hospital soon? I really don't think his time on earth is up yet.. We were figuring on at LEAST a few more years. is this a cosmic joke? fix the cancer but ruin the man?
I hope you're done messing with him this time.

I did get out earlier today. 25 miles. It wasn't too bad most of the time, but I did find myself needed a higher gear than normal to feel stable. Now my knee is mad at me. Originally Posted by Catrin
