Happy holidays and an exceptionally fun season to all!
<gloat>
I'm about to drive out to CA to climb at Joshua Tree for a few days, then do a week-long bike tour in San Diego.

Strength training my lousy upper body. Riding my trainer 6 days a week and killing myself twice a week with various intervals. I will return to commuting after the new year when I am back to work.
I am also working on a better training plan and trying to move away from the ride lots mindset.
..and christmas shopping.

Happy holidays to all the fellow cyclists. The skiing has been too good for me to think much about riding. I will get on the trainer for exercise, but that doesn't count for me. It is just a workout. If you are in CO, this is another great snow year in the making.

Hey,
Merry xMas & Happy New Year to all fellow Denverites & Coloradans. I'm in Daytona Beach for the winter --- 'twas 80 degrees & sunny today (as usual) so I'm not missing Denver or the mountains too much.
Riding on weekends only due to work and lack of daylight this time o'year -- can't wait for March 9th (Daylight Saving Time). The good news is that as of today (or yesterday?) the days will getting longer for the next 6 months!

My trip was a success - 4 days of climbing in Joshua Tree, 6 days/400 miles of riding in SoCal, not a drop of rain and barely a breath of wind.
