Canyon climbing at 1am!! Climb fixed is always fun, as well as the crazy spin coming backing down. Now, this morning my legs feel totally burned out. I wish I could get more fixed gear riders to come out

the problem is too many dont like to climb in general. This was my weekly "Cub Camp" ride. Last week had a good turn out(10 people?), but I mentioned the "H" word this week and 3 people showed up. It wasn't even a difficult climb and I suck at climbing

Those guys are idiots.
Today I continued my week long tradition of early morning swim practice. It was raining like crazy but the lightning subsided and we only had to practice 25 minutes late (we swim in an indoor pool). I did a 100m Butterfly time trial (4 laps at full gas) and now I'm tired. Time for food.

Woke up; put on my kit; kissed my wife good bye; rode my 3rd consecutive metric century fixed. Gorging on the homebaked treats my wife made when I was away.

Yup. Still behind jegesus through who's 4 for 4. BUT lo and behold we have the weekend! And then back to work 
Well I can still ride at night through as it's summer and I only have to staff 1 session each day at work and grading can be BS'd anytime.
Who dares me to do them consecutively?

In my day, I had a 100 free time of 51.50 in shortcourse yards. I did it at the district championships, it was my last even of the year so I just kind of went all out for all four laps. My arms felt like they were covered in cement for the last lap but it broke my highschool's record (we sucked at every sport though)

Today I read that the Leader Kagero frameset will cost $800.
Is it:
A. "Overpriced"
B. Hand-made and "totally worth it bro"
???

Today I went on my first "Critical Mass Ride," although it only lasted about an hour an a half and went about 11 miles. I ended up doing around 23 miles today after my new lights and computer came in.

Nice! Breaking records always outweighs the pain. Last time I did a yards 100 free I was time trial'ing it, trying to get on the A team for my college's NCAA team. Knew I wasn't fast enough but tried anyways. Went 45.08 and my coach just told me I was slow =[. I actually ended up on that relay anyways because most of the sprinters didn't make the meet but I made it in 200 fly and the medley relays.
Today I went to a waterpark with my girlfriend.
