I gave blood today. And that is not one of those clever tourist trash saying found on a t-shirts you buy after wrecking on porcupine rim. There was a blood drive at one of the local area starbucks. I was scheduled to do a bike safety demo for the kids but none showed up so I let the good folks from the American Red Cross have some AB positive and took the day off from the bike. I was planning on a nice ride but after losing a pint you are not supposed to do anything physical for 5 hours. My blood type is only found in 3% of white Americans and can only be used for other people with AB blood types. If you want to donate click here.

Bikes are fun

So no real new news I rode Chub the on Monday. I had to hammer it because i was meeting some friends for sushi (which is eff'n expensive). Averaged 8miles an hour and only did 7.55 mile due to flooding and time.
I have decided that instead of trying to do a full commute I will drive to starbucks then ride to TC and then back to my car when i get off. I tried this out on Tuesday. Taking a little longer route into the shop 141 to via des pares to clayton to henry. Then the more direct back hanna to vance to 141. Not sure of times because I haven't ponied up the cash for a computer but its all good i just need to log miles. With that I will put an end to my rambling, pe@ce love and phil wood grease!

back on the road

I finally ordered all of the parts in order to build up my road bike. Friday night I finished dialing it in and putting on the pedals. Saturday was a perfect day to day it out for a nice ride to start my legs back. Chris and i set off from his house and did a 52 mile loop through west county in just under 3 hours. Pretty laid back with some descent hills orville being the crown jewel. It felt good even though the legs lost power pretty quickly and Chris had to slow his roll on many occasions. I'm going to go ride tomorrow, Pe@ce

That is the sound made when you open a soda. Now if you do not drink said refreshing beverage once opened it will go flat. And unless it is root beer it will not be refreshing or enjoyable. I am a soda that has been opened and not enjoyed. Sunday sucked for me. 2:15 for 15+ miles with a 6.9mph average. I am seriously having hard time this season.
