Saturday: After putting on the new Forte Softtail (road/touring) saddle bought at Performance Bike, and then lowering the seat tube and steering stem a hair (as per LBS), I tested out my "Craigslist Find" - my old '85 Fuji Del Rey 12 speed. I did 13 miles in a gentle 57:10. Great bike, built like a tank, and in surprisingly great condition for being 30 years old!
MapMyRide: 13 miles, 57:10, avg speed - 13.6 mph, calories burned - 996 (I'm 54, 6'0" and 208 lbs).

Sunday: I really considered going back out on the Fuji again, but decided to go running instead. I just did a quick 3.10 (5K) miles in my neighborhood before the temps got too hot. I did the 5K run in 27:25 at an 8:50 min/mile pace, and burned 616 calories.
