Well…it was a good day today and I got two rides in downstairs and then went out and did a ride outside for a total of 31 today…and I did the math and I only have 73 more to go to get to 5,000 for the year when I really thought I’d be lucky to get to 3,000…and I’m not too sore today but my damn right thigh hurt on the whole outside ride so I’ll have to voltaren it tomorrow if I get out…along with my right thumb…and my damn gout is back again so I’m drinking tons of water since not getting enough is the cause of it for me…I am so happy with the repairs I made to the bike and I’m even getting used to the new pedals with figuring out where my feet have to be on them to be comfortable…they closed the beach road gates today and that means they won’t be moving any sand until spring and I’ll have to cut the loop out that goes to my water stop on the boardwalk in  a couple of days…and make it up by riding past downtown and then looping back to here…and that will be okay since I want to look at the lights they have up downtown and see if anything has changed…break time…
