Finally got out again yesterday and then again today after almost a month off the bike. The last couple months have been one thing after another! I was sick, my dog was sick, weather, work and a trip to New Jersey kept me off the bike. I haven't even had time to read the forums. Yesterday I finally decided to bag work for a couple of hours and go for a ride. I got out around 1 and shortly found out it was too hot for my tastes. I managed my usual 22.4 miles though.

Today I was trying to get out around 10, but got tied up trying to finish a long overdue drawing and didn't make it out until almost noon. Still not early enough as it was hotter today than yesterday. I made it the 22 miles, but was starting to wear out on the way home. I've gained some weight and am really out of shape now! I am going to have to switch to my summer hours and ride first thing in the morning, before working.

I don't know if I'll make it out tomorrow, but I'll give it a shot!
