Have a great ride

I'm hanging out in my office listening to ABACAB, not Genesis's best work by several albums, but I
turned 21 the year it came out ... I'm thinking about riding again. On Wed., riding Animas Mtn, I
started feeling pretty bad. I was slower than usual on the climb, stomach cramps. Today is the firt
day I've felt back to normal, but it rained again this afternoon, like it has for the past 4 days.
We need the rain. I have to ride tomorrow, because Thurs. I leave for Petersburg AK for a guy's sea
kayaking trip. I don't want to make it 2.5 weeks. I've only ridden my Ellsworth 5 times in the last
2 months, all in the last 2 weeks since I've finally put it back together ... and she is riding
GREAT, new wheels, Avid discs, levers, rebuilt AD10, all rebuilt pivots! Still, I have a slow leak
in the front, and since I've spent so much energy working on 5 bikes lately, I just pump it up
before every ride ... figures.

We all talk about riding with plenty of enthusiasm, I meet a lot of guys and gals on the street in
town who are great bike enthusiasts. This is a great sport at every level.

Well, Me and Sarah-Jane have to move on now ... but you have a great ride this week!
