The weather let up long enough on Saturday to get in 22 miles of riding fun. It had been two weeks since the wheels had hit the pavement. I was a little winded as I got on the bike. We had a basketball game in the morning, I got home, and hit the road after a bagel. I needed the ride. It was difficult since the legs were worn. I had rode twice in the garage this week and played basketball three times when my butt hit the saddle Saturday morning. After returning home, I felt at peace and real tired.
This weekend I signed up for the Solvang Century in Solvang, CA. I am excited to go back and be able to ride this one again. It is a nice way to start the season off. Not much more to write, I will be riding indoors this week as well since I will be in Hollister all week. I'll need some serious time on the bike next Saturday as the weeks get shorter till the ride. I've ridden more this year than last but I feel less prepared. We'll see shortly...
On a positive note, the days are getting longer and I will be able to get back on the road during the week shortly.
Christine and I had a great time this weekend, hanging out in downtown Portland at a Home Builder's Association awards ceremony. Milgard received a marketing award and we were there to show ourselves. It was good food, good company, and just plain good to be hanging out with the C.
