Well…as you can see, I’m taking the weekend off from political stuff to just let my brain rest a little…but, that doesn’t mean I can skip these and not feel guilty…so, how about a bike update? The ride today was just brutal, the wind was blowing out of the East at about 20 and that made the first 3 mile leg out just frickin brutal…and the last hill is into the wind, too, so I was just drained when I got back here….I think I have the bike zeroed in after 3 rides…got the seat set at the right height today and got the fine tuning for the shifters set so I can get the gear I want when I want it, and along with adjusting the brakes to the feel I want, I think it’s ready to just ride some…I really do like the new bike a lot and I feel good that I picked another good one….the ride is just so smooth and I can bomb around without flinching when I hit bumps like I did on the Schwinn…even started a little of that today but with the wind so strong, it’s hard to get into any kind of a rhythm, especially when it gusts to over 30…but one good thing is that I can eat again with being on the bike every day…going to even have an olive burger for dinner today….and maybe even a snack later….
