Shut up legs!

Every once and a while you just have one of those days where your tired and the leg's are feeling like cinder blocks. I had a tough ride the day before and a very late night so today I was just plain beat. But I can't pass up a day with mid 80's temp and a nice little wind to go play in. I always ride better when the temps get hotter and throw in some humidity and I'm one happy camper. To help motivate me to get the leg's going I decided to pull out the TT bike. So I ended the day with a fun 36 miles and am glad I didn't listen to the leg's at the start of the day.

Bikes: Too damn many to list, seriously.

If you are happy when it warms up and you like humidity, you should move to Georgia. You'd be down right delirious.
