Last night I was hanging out with a sqrl and a group of people that were friends and people I just met. Was weird because we were all packed into one dorm room. And then I walked outside and there was 1/2 inch of slush and snow on the ground. Eff U Michigan, its April.

what time do you start work? the only way i can ride in the AM is if i ride to work, and that means i have to wake up at 4:30.

Tonight I see Sigur Ros...I should probably listen to some of their new tunes today.

Schedule varies depending on morning meetings but typically I'm on the work shuttle at either 8:15 (non-riding mornings) or 8:50 (riding mornings). When I ride, I'm out the door at 6am.

I was exceptionally disciplined this pre-season. Being single and not waking up w sqrlfriend every morning helps.

At my peak volume (december-jan) I was up at 5:15 and out the door by 6:00 for 3hrs of riding T,W and Th. Hit 17hrs one week. Thank god those days are over (not because i have a gf :( ) and I can sleep another hour or two in favor of shorter more intense workouts.

Man, I have a hard enough time just waking up at 8 to get to work by 9, and it's only a half hour ride. I can't imagine being disciplined enough to wake up reliably that early for morning rides... massive props to you guys. What time to do usually go to bed before doing that? I always end up staying up until at least 12:30 - 1:30 even when I try to go to sleep earlier.

That's hilarious. Where's the Type-R badge tho?

TMonk 04-12-13 12:26 PM

im usually in bed by 10:30-11 on weekdays, a little later on weekends. also im flat ass asleep within 10 min of getting in bed almost always.
I need to be having a lot of fun to stay up past 11:30.

It just an internal clock thing. I'm a morning person. For example, I can stay up drinking w co-workers/friends, pass out at 3am, and still wake up by 7:30 at the latest with no alarm. It sucks for me when every1 is sleeping but I usually just go for a walk and come back w breakfast burritos.

Oatmeal is never the right temperature.

i usually bed by 10:30 on weekdays and get up at 5:30 (4:30 if i'm riding). sleeping in on saturdays means i sleep until 7:30.

also, alcohol consumption makes me sleep even less.

Today I tried to find a fixed gear I could buy and use while I'm out here in Augusta, GA, and was severely disappointed. I've been touring the southeast, though, and it's been a ****ing blast.

Currently making more muffins because my milk only has a few days left. Going to eat like a king for the next few days.

SS_Giant 04-12-13 03:23 PM

new lefty or did you already have that?

Dannihilator 04-12-13 08:22 PM

Today I had a fun 32 miles and decided that I'm done with dj mtb's, fed up with repairs.

Nagrom_ 04-12-13 08:47 PM

What went wrong today?

Dannihilator 04-12-13 08:50 PM

Spare rear wheel is bad, the brake is jacked up.

The new Oster blender I bought did not have the seal ring to keep it from leaking everywhere. Well, at least all over the counter.

That and the next door neighbor died.

sinikl 04-12-13 11:59 PM

Did my first 20 mile ride. May not be great shakes to some of you, but i'm stoked after ~4 months of riding where 5 miles used to be a lot for me at the beginning. Had a few recovery beers then rode 2.6 home at 85-100 rpm, so there was still some gas in the tank. Feels good, man.

FakeFuji 04-13-13 09:28 AM

Today my kilo is finished, I will take pictures on my post work ride, it doesn't look like my sig anymore
