Woke up this morning to 3 inches of snow and 4 more on the way, drove into work this morning. Last nights ride home was a real character builder, first off I wasn't feeling that well because I have not been eating that well for the past couple of days, I think I'm on the beginning of a cold or flu, I left work and started out riding a little hard so that I wouldn't be late for an appointment that I had, it was 27 degrees and I was pushing about a 5 mph headwind. About 5 miles into the ride I grabbed my water bottle and chugged about a good 3 ounces of thick dish soap, my wife thought the bottles were getting a little dirty so she cleaned them for me. That slowed me for a while, traffic was heavy and the wind picked up as I got closer to hame. At mile 17, I pass a house that usually has a large black dog loose in the yard, it always waits for me to give me a scare, well now the home owner has 2 large black dogs and they're good at what they do. They chased me down and grabbed my ankle, I stoped and gave them both an eye full of dish soap, it worked, they run the other way. I guess my wife knew this was going to happen and armed me for it. I then went home and called the dog officer to file a complaint, we'll see what good it does. Well, have a great day all, we'll pick it up again Monday.
