well....
been sick... so i'm still 1/5... took 3 sick days and took the car today...
i had a bit of an ear infection and maybe strep... kids are getting better... wife has touch of bronch... what a sick house we have!!
anyways, my throat is feeling better, so i plan on being back on the bike tomorrow morning... i miss biking... i get grumpy without cycling even a little.... it is a freewheeling freedom that has a sensation of flying.... all by the power of MY legs..
anyways, 1/5 so far...
oilfree: i was wondering the same thing... i hadn't been sick all winter, yet, and was kindof cocky... now im sick.. i DO believe though that cycling helps your body be stronger.. we make our bodys regulate temperature.. we go from extreme to extreme with all kinds of variations.. people going from heated houes to heated car to heated carpark to heated office don't make their bodies regulate temp as much and i think that when they do get exposed to temp diffs they are susceptible to colds... i know, probably BS.. and any kind of fitness or even "light" excersise can help boost immune system....
DogBoy: congrats on the 2nd century!! i gotta try one of those.... i think it'll kill me, but i'd like to try it...
later folks,
J
