Bicycle on the brain

 
 
 
 

Had a good ride up cloudline today. it's just a climb behind Cal State San Bernardino that I used to do reguarly. Very windy in some spots. Head winds were fearce, but the tail wind keep me in the big ring a little longer. Anyway 28-miles 2:hours 20mins.It's long,step,loose with big rocks. Good grueling climb to help me forget about todays loss. Today I sold the bus. I didn't really want to but it's just been sittin there and the people that bout it have the resourses to do something with her. i had that thing since 1995. change is good. the Guy who bout it is going to make it a moving billboard for his store, (Greenspot liqour store and Jerkey). At least thats what he said so now It's become an icon in the I.e.

I'm really not into snowboarding but this does look fun.

.......and that was long enough. I'm not to good at the trainer thing. sometimes I can get 1-1/2 hours in but it's just so boring, but I had things to do today so at least I got something in. I did have a good three day of pedaling this weekend. Friday was a good 30-miles ride to g-spot bridge and back with a couple of trips up Orange St. in Highland. 2-hours. Saturday headed up toward Glen Helen regional park. 40-miles 3hours in the saddle and on Sunday I did the same thing as friday to G-spot bridge and back without the multiple trips up Orange. 25-miles 1-hour & 30-mins.

Now I can really get lost in the woods ;-) But 1st I need to learn how to use it.
Haven't got as much riding in as I would have likes to so far this month, but coming home after work and sleeping has been great. the weather should be nice this week so i don't have to worry about going out and melting away. ever since I changed the name of my blog to what I wanted it to be, I think i'm the only one ready this load of crap. that's o.k. thou, I talk to myself alot to and that don't seem to bother me. o.k. back to work.

And happy new year to all. Tonight is my 1st nite on swing shift and it's great! I should be home by 12:30 - 1:00 a.m., get some sleep and out the door pedaling by 8:30.Ended last year with a fun ride (on the single-speed) @ Crafton Hills College. We (team B.S.) had a great ride. Most of the climb up crafton had a nice crisp layer of frost on the ground and the single track in the wash was great. On monday 12/31/07 I got a good road ride in. Started from da pad and headed out Greenspot rd. From there headed west to Redlands then took Barton rd. to Mt Vernon and hopped and the beach trail back to waterman ave. from there I zig-zagged up to the base and a quick ghetto ride to the pad and I was home safe. 40-miles 2and 1/2 hours saddle time. this morning was a quick get out and pedal some day got about an hour in then had to get home and get ready for my 1st night on swing shift. Once i get adjusted to my new sleeping hours i should have the oppertunity to get at leasr 2-3 hours in of training a day. We'll see. I'm getting very excited for my 1st race/ride of the year out in Arizona. the Antlope peak challenge should be a fun time.O.k. gotta get back to work. I had pics to post but forgot to transfer files to work. :(
