A different chart

I guess it is bound to happen to every bicyclists and for me I was glad it was a short decline and I only was going around 10 miles an hour.  Below is where I spent the next 2 days. The chart below is of my body and not my mileage. I wanted to decrease my miles this year and I guess this is one way of doing it, but I am not sure whether the 3 cracked ribs were worth the price.  At a minimum 6 weeks off of the bike.....

Been a long time

I actually could not ride my bike for a month from mid July to Mid August so not much to blog about as not much biking going on. I  really missed not riding and it took me about a week to get "back in shape".

I was riding along and one of my Saturday morning riders asked me if I ever thought about riding cross country again and my response was "Every day". By coincidence when I was riding home the same day I was reminded of one of our fellow XC09 riders. He visited a lot of first responders in every town we stopped in any many of those places were fire stations. He once told me he never saw a "live" Dalmation at any of those fire stations. The picture below is for him:



The picture below is for another cross country rider who once rode with his Dog. This reminded me of him.  Check out that passenger's sunglasses.
