My post count is approaching 5000 and my bike odometer is 27 miles from rolling over 10K. Coincidence?
That's 10K in less than 3 years. What I lack in mileage I make up for in feet climbed per mile. Minimum of 1500 every time I roll out the door.

I'm sure I must average 1500 vertical feet per ride. Hell, the ride up Mt. Doom alone is about 400'. I did at least 8000' Sat and Sunday.

I watch Idol via the DVR...fast forward through the "you suck" performers. I do like to listen to Crystal and Mike.
One of my "big" bosses wandered through my lab today and asked if I watched the "game". I said no and he then spent nearly 10 minutes...I timed him lol...regaling me with a blow by blow of the high points of the game. When he finished I told him bike racing was my sport of choice and spent 10 minutes regaling him with high points of Flanders...hehehe doubt he wanders through the lab when I'm on duty again.

We have weekly team meetings via conf. line and webex, as several of us are home-based. When you log on to webex, you can use any name you want. We have one guy who's a huge St. Louis Cards fan...today he signed on as Albert Pujols. Today, I signed on as Fabian Cancellara.

Time to ride.
#2518
I was riding last evening, stopped to switch on my rear blinky . . . and it was gone!
Where could it be?
I remember taking it off earlier, but I thought I put it back on. I don't see it sitting around anywhere.
It's hard to believe that either someone took it or it fell off, but what else could have happened to it?
It's a mystery.

Time to shower. TT bike really felt outstanding today. Position is friggin DIALED.
Nothing makes me feel more Fredly than riding that TT bike however. But I like it. Man that thing is fast going down hills.

I felt Fredly today being pulled by a rider on a MTB, but he's a strong rider when I've ridden with him when he's on his road bike. I'm not looking forward to the heat on the ride back home though.
