Tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow creaps at this petty pace from day to day ...
Here I was enjoying a sunny afternoon, one eye on the clock to where the LBS promised my bike would be ready. If I finished my housework by then I could walk to the shop and ride home.
Well, almost done with the housework with 2 hours to go, but those "extreme thunder storm warnings" that looked so improbable an hour ago ...? They were accurate.What a thrill to hear that thunder roll and the rain pour down! It's almost tropical. And very refreshing as I air out the newly cleaned apartment. But it does mean waiting another day to pick up the bike. I mean, here the bike will be fresh oiled and tuned. What a waste to gunk it up on a 6-mile ride through storm muck on ordinary city streets I walk every day already. But tomorrow, tomorrow, I'll love ya if your weather forecast holds.
Oh, and I'm sore from spin class today anyway. A good tough endurance ride and learned all about schnoodles from my "ride partner" on the next bike over.

May 17 ride reports anybody?
Half-marathon over. Sabbatical year over. It's back to "sacking shirt and oat cakes" as they say here.

You learned all about what?
Drink coffee and do stupid things faster with more energy.

schnoodles. designer mutts, schnauzer/poodle mix. expensive. and you have to sign a contract that you won't let your dog breed. but they sound cute and this guy says his daughter's is very lovable.

Poodles seem to be the universal mixer! I'd heard of labradoodles before, but this is the first I've heard of schnoodles.

This just cracked me up. I picture a bunch of mixed breed dogs in cocktail glasses.
