I know well that, after a long winter, I can't get my summer biking legs back in one weekend's outings (especially at our age). So why do I still do this every year? I had my trail bike out yesterday for a somewhat tiring ride due to the trail surface being soft in most places, then today I took the road bike to the local practice venue and tried to double the previous day's mileage with a stiff breeze to boot. Once again I'm wiped out and feeling like I've "lost it" at last!

At least tomorrow's Easter and with my son home and other family activities I'll be forced to stay inside. Otherwise I'd probably be at it again! No wonder my wife thinks I'm nuts...
