You've been a good patient. But maybe you should take your rides easier because of the time you spent off the bike, you need to get some of your fitness back.

I finally took the snow tires off the commuter and I've started commuting again.
Hammering on a Big Dummy hurts.
And it poured rain on my ride home my first commute ride back.
Still, good to be back on the wagon again. It was wayyyyy too easy to just drive the car every day.

One day you'll figure out that nothing is more Foobar than the 41.

I'm really enjoying that Telluride thread. I'm spending a week in CO in July, going to Telluride and Breckenridge. Planning on hiking and riding. We are driving, so the bikes will be in the truck (with my compact). I doubt my wife is going to ride in Telluride, but she wants to ride around the lake in Breck. My solo rides should be fun and challenging.

Woohooo! Major upgrade to the Diamondback Interval today!
Went from:
Joytech rear hub of poo/Alex something or other
To:
Shimano Tiagra/Alex something or other.
Front is a NICE single wall Araya laced to 105 hub (but I've had that wheel on front for a while now)
Soon to be burnin' up the roads of eastern Oregon.

Last day of not being able to ride. Can't wait until tomorrow when I can FINALLY get back on the bike!
Here is the ride that I "didn't" do tonight. If I had done it I would have managed to get three new PR's.

You won't be calling me a Fred after I finish that 45+ race Saturday. You'll be asking me for my autograph.

Incorrect, I'll just be calling you a Fred that finished an old man race.
