Finally got to ride the bike for the first time since November. Sure the skiing helps the cardiovascular system but with a new activity it's all those different muscles that come into play...Did a 70 mile loop in a leisurely 17+ mph pace but am way sore today! Yep, nothing like using a whole new set of muscles. OUCH! That ride will keep my perspective intact meaning that I know I've got a ways to go before I start kicking ass this season. I wanted to tell you this because as I was busting a nut up a steep hill and I actually said out loud (no one was around I think) "fuck this pyruvate shit! Gotta get me some GEAR!!" Coming from a total, pure AS virgin, that was pretty damn funny...you had to be there I suppose. If I don't hear from you, have a good trip.
