I tuned in late and didn't see the hit. They never replayed it again while I was watching, and I stayed tuned for over an hour until the league finally postponed the game and the fans filed out. It was such an eerie scene to tune in, see the stands totally filled with fans, but there's no cheering going on and the field is totally empty.

Well, the fact that Simon is coming into this world tomorrow at 9 am, I’m not sure when I will ever get to ride this bike. Maybe, that’s the catch? She loves to watch me shake with anticipation.
She’s reading this over my shoulder and reminded me that she still wants her upgraded diamond ring.
That might be the catch.

I thought not.

There is a ritchey in Jacksonville Florida in my size for only 750.00. I have been eye balling for a couple of weeks. If it wasn’t 9 hour drive I would consider it. But other than that I’m content.
Velo, I would rather wake up early and ride on a day where I know everyone else is hung over and asleep than stay up late the night before.

I'm content with the number and variety of bikes I have. Now, it's about fine-tuning the parts. Assuming all is well with my rear hub, my road bike is where I want...unless I spend big for Dura Ace Di2 complete kit, which would also require rebuilding the rear wheel with a Shimano-compatible hub, and a different power meter device. Those changes would be more than I paid for the bike. Not gonna happen. My gravel bike is very close...CF wheels, maybe. My MTB needs a power meter, but is otherwise pretty close to perfect. My trainer bike needs new bar tape (I have it, I just need to put it on. I can do it all by myself 
).
).Maybe I’ll just stick with the newer Ultegra 12sp Di2. I do want to get the Speedplay power meters regardless at some point.

It's January and the Food Holidays are past, and I have... well, let's just say some pounds to lose. I need to stop The Older Boy buying ice cream at Safeway.
On a related note - those of you who do a lot of structured training: Do you have to barely get through a workout? Or is it enough to just wish you could stop?
