I was planning on riding this morning but that storm pushed through Houston around 7-8. So we went about our day and I snuck off and rode 14 miles around 3. The bike path was crazy crowded. Almost ran over a Mexican kid and a chihuahua (whole families walking in the middle of the trial. ) It felt good to get back on the bike. I was doing good before my tri, but I've been slacking ever since. I didn't workout once in the month of December The MS150 will be here before I know it. Time to get back in riding shape. Y'all oughta rode it with me. Good cause and a good ride.

Dang, be careful out there. Know when to ride and when not to... Lesson learned, I had been on wet concrete but this surface material was way too slick...I was almost slipping just standing there. It was a drizzly foggy morning. Tire had just slipped (spun out) going up a hill, the next turn my back tire kept going straight. Managed to walk and trot a mile yesterday....more like a shuffle. Felt like an old man trying to run, but I was determined. Did some band exercises to loosen up afterwards. I found other parts of me sore day after.
You can avoid having ulcers by adapting to the situation: If you fall in the mud puddle, check your pockets for fish. ~Unknown
Open your eyes & look within, are you satisfied with the life youre living.
No matter how good or bad you have it, wake up each day thankful for your life. Someone somewhere else is desperately fighting for theirs.

I will be down your way for the Woodland's Marathon, you can come hoot and holler for me! I doubt I will make the MS150. Kinda strapped for cash. Had to use Christmas money to pay entry into marathon.

Man that sucks, that your 2nd crash? No broken bones or messed up gear is a good thing! I hate riding when it's wet, for the most part I only have 1 "highspeed" say over 18mph, sharp turn on all of my routes. It's a long down hill. I've cringed going through it while wet, luckily tires gripped and we went on through.

I have fallen over cause I was clipped in....but I wasn't going anywhere. Happened a couple times, one I was first starting out and the other one, I forgot I was clipped in and wet to walk away....doh.
This was the first wreck moving. Hopefully last one!
I was SUPER LUCKY!

Hahaha is how I'll start this off. Found someone giving away a set of rollers on FB, so I went and picked them up. Wife's at work, kids are asleep, so I just went out to the shop to give it a spin. Holy hell, it's like riding on ice. Granted I hopped on the bike with jeans and boots but dang, there's an art to riding on those things and it's going to take some practice! It's a pretty crazy sensation trying to pedal on it without holding on to something.
