On the bike

Road 2times this week. They both hurt. But I know it will get easier

Check

Now that it's cashed I'll have to start training for Sept. I think I will not be getting a prefered start this year. Oh well has not helped me the last two years.

1st ride of the year

That was last weekend. 8 miles on Sat. and 24 on Sunday. Just piling the miles on. I got 8 in this Sat. and I'll see what I can do today (sunday) because it's only going to be a high of 28.

OH my

Can you guess who this is? The one on the right.

New Family Member

So Michelle gets home from the gym and goes to get the mail a cat comes running across the yard.
What so you think happens.
Well after a trip to the vet. Some deworming meds. Front line and antibiotics and the other normal shots. We we have a cat again.
He found us.
He still needs to be fixed and maybe front declawed. But so far every day he is getting better and fitting in.
YES we took in a stay. But then again look at my friends. I think he much better looking then most of them.

If Anyone wants

I added a donate button on the side bar if anyone would like to give me some money. What you get is less money and I have more.
It sounds like a good deal to me.

Made the Paper

Been lifting 2 times a week and riding when the weather is good. Got a few 2 hours rides by my self in at night.
Hoping to do my 1st race Sat. in the 3/4 master.
As all way you can check my mileage from my Garmin's. Up to 3 for the bike now and one for the car.
The newest bike one is the Edge 705 it has a color screen and everything.

Let it snow (not melt)

I have skied 7 time this winter already. I forget how much I like skiing. The last few year I only got out a few time and never real got in to any ski shape. I hope the whole winter stay like this.
Went to Minooka Park on New Years Day. It been a long time since I ski there. It's still a nice place to go.
Oh yea by the way HAPPY NEW YEAR.
A little Garmin action.

Who Else Can Say

Their Mother In-law is on boxes of Kraft Mac and Cheese. She does work for a company that plans meeting for them. And for all her good work they did something like 1000 boxes like this. And donated $1000.00 to a chiarity of her choosing. Look for one on store shelf near you.

P.S. if you find one get for me, she only got 3 for her self.

End Of Year

Well I was doing some totaling. Looks as I have 1350 miles between road, mtb and cross. My bigest mileage week was 88 miles that's in one week.
Average Heart rate 147
Average speed 14.8
Calories Burned 82513

I do have another 300 some on the track. That is a wopping 1650 miles racing and training. I don't know if I will be able to put up big numbers like this again next year. With out going Pro or something.

Have a great X-mas and a safe New Years.

Snow

I skied Parkside and Nordic, hopefuly more to come. Not doing the dry land training I used to before ski season makes sking alot more of a work out then I need sometime at this time of the year.
But It's fun and I get to see bikers try and ski, that always fun. Any one have snowburn on their face (Goat)

MORE video from the Halloween Night Ride Lap

This was lap one I tried to ride with different people so it would be more interesting. I'm not the best editor, but I don't care.
Sorry it laod slow. I'll try to fix it.

Halloween Night Ride Oh MY 07

All ways forget how much fun night riding is. Had a good turn out. Hope Randy's all right, he went down hard just after I picked myself up off the ground.

It looked and sounded something like this. Boy do I make weird noises when I crash.
