I didn't ride today after work. I am still bonked from all the hours cranking this weekend pedaling through snow. I have a few lingering injuries I need to give time to heal The problem is I so missed riding today. I sat here tonight watching a Bike DVD race. The Weather People are talking perhaps 18 inches of snow, perhaps more in the next 36 hours. Since I bought my FatBack 4 inch tire bike I have rode everyday I wanted to this Iowa winter. Maybe I'll try my indoor abandoned rollers tomorrow night for the first time this winter, with the weather report as it is, maybe not.
Billy G from snowy New York should have received his Fat Tired bike today. He won't regret it
My friend Lance Andre is in the front 3 at Arrowhead 135 today. See race report below from race blog. Go man GO!!!
-10F, mostly dark, light north winds. Lead pack of bikers down to 3, Oatley-Buffington-Andre coming out of MelGeorge halfway.
I can't admit this to my snow buddies, but I am starting to crave some pavement and or gravel riding after two months of all snow travels, I am ready, for lighter bikes, faster rides, less preparation, more miles.
Later

Ok, ok, ok......... Work in the a.m. And I want my keys to work in the locks when I get home!!! AKA pissed off female..........
Ahhhh...... so I put my head on my pillow, and dream of the 2012 AH135........ With me toeing the starting line with people who are much faster than I, and way to many who are younger than I, damn I hope I can sleep!!??
Peace
Oh Gawd!!! JoBoo, I feel your pain. :-)
You guys deserve some riding that doesn't include snow.
Spring isn't far off. Sorta.....
All of us - hikers, swimmers, bikers - desire spring, warmth.
48 days . . .
My girlfriend keeps talking about going somewhere warm for spring break. I'm thinking about bumping that trip up a month.
Dave - I do love it. Had it out last night and this morning. Need some tweaking to the rear d but all is good!
AH135 is the goal for next Feb. We have the bikes - might as well push the envelope right!
I was thinking the same thing about how heavy the bike was and how much fun pavement and gravel will feel in a couple of months - but I am ready for more snow personally!!
Really cute pic of Cole, weather has gone downhill in Texas! I may be on the trainer myself.
Yeah - Spring can't come soon enough...!!
I wondered if you were out riding in the blizzard :)
's Okay, Dave, a lot of us start to crave the pave this time of year...
