Anyways...this means I've been on a wee bit of a hiaitus with the knitting and general old-spinster-tasticness that usually consumes my life, but I'm getting back into it.
I've also registered for school for this month, and I'm SO excited to go back. I've missed it. I never thought I would miss it, but I did :). And now, I have a super awesome bike to ride there and back! I don't have any pictures of me with it, but I DO have a picture of me wit hthe first bike that I bought (which I later traded in for my current baby).
A super excited me with a Trek 8.2 DS, the day I bought it.
The ride mate and I, on the train back to Dana Point after riding to Oceanside...Total miles for the day: 37. Awesome.
The NEW new baby. Trek 7.3 Hybrid. YUM. Lurve.
One of the stops on our most recent ride (Newport Dunes-ish area. 11.8 miles of gorgeous surroundings...swooning over here!)
Things I've learned recently:
- Excedrin 30-45 minutes before a long ride makes a HUGE difference in muscle fatigue.
- Good friends make everything ok. Even if it's just for a night, or a few hours, it's ok.
- Malabrigo really IS as awesome as everyone said it was.
- Biking outside in the morning makes the rest of the day a lot better...and biking at night after work makes the shift shorter, and it the best way to end a stressful day.
Hope you're all doing well...knitting pics coming soon, I promise. :)
