Well….just finished looking at the weather forecast for the next week and it looks like today was the last ride of the year…and that is really depressing…but, there is no way I’m even going to try to go out next week since the highs are only going to be in the teens and that is just too damn cold even if the trails are clear….so I guess the total for the year is going to be 3,072 miles which is not bad for and old guy….and for wearing out a bike and having to shift to the antique…I think I’ll keep it in running order this time so I can still take it out even after I buy the new one in February…..didn’t get to the thousand miles that I hoped for on the old one but that’s okay…one weird thing is that I haven’t had a flat on the old bike when I normally have two or three a year on the mountain bike….I guess it’s hibernation time until April….but, I’ll keep my fingers crossed that we may get some dry times this winter and I can get out again to start the year….
