Man, I didn't realize it had been so long since I've updated this damn thing. Since my last post not a whole lot has gone on. I did decide not to try the HHH but I will be doing my first organized ride on Saturday. The Tour de Pants!

It a 75 mile ride around Possum Kingdom Lake and is supposed to have quite a few big hills. The distances include a 12, 41 and 75 mile routes, I'll be doing the 41. I have managed to talk Lisa into doing this with me it'll be a first for her as well. She's not sure whether she'll be doing the 12 or 41, she'll make that decision Saturday morning I suppose. Should be good weather and a fun but challenging ride.

This past week I have ridden three times, beating my previous bests in Ave. MPH (15.6), Distance (22.26) and Top Speed (25.7). Its been a good week! The three rides included 19, 20 and 22 mile rides. I decided, when I ride longer distances (15 miles and up), that I will take off the day after the give my muscles a rest. I seemed to working fine until yesterday....... I over slept and did not get a chance to ride. So I will be riding this afternoon and again tomorrow in the Tour de Pants.

Today's ride will be a shorter one, just need to get the blood moving in my legs before the big ride tomorrow............

Be good in the world!
