But WHY does a 4.5 hour ride sound DREADFUL to me?<br><br>
I was HAPPY when I "only" had to do 4.5 hours training for IMFL.<br><br>
Oh well-I told sheldon to turn on the furnace...he said he was only lighting the pilot light<img alt="sad2.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/sad2.gif"><br><br>
Gotta get the winter weight off!

I don't think Sheldon is willing to spend his Sat calling me with googlemaps on his laptop telling me when to turn and how fast to go.
Back when I had handlebar palsy I had to do 4+ hours on the trainer. IN THE MIDDLE OF SUMMER! I win!<br><br>
Ok-so now I remember I have county honor chorus on sat...so now I have to run after my concert (I'll prolly run stone mountain) and then I have to bike/run/lift on sunday. Sigh. <img alt="banana.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/banana.gif"><img alt="sad2.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/sad2.gif"><img alt="banana.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/banana.gif">
In my own defense of "bad technique..."<br><br>
This happened "suddenly" on the first day of Bike Ride Across GA. I had gotten a bike fit and my handlebars were not properly tightened. Sherry crossed over some very clunky RR tracks and all my weight was thrown forward onto the handlebars...which pretty much tipped way down.<br><br>
So...<img alt="uhoh2.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/uhoh2.gif">
It woulda helped if I knew they weren't tight before I ride. I DO carry a multi-tool...and at the next SAG stop I got it fixed up correctly...
...I'm sorry for whining...I've got less hours on the bike now. I should keep my mouth shut.<br><br>

Mr T gets nervous on biking days. He likes when I ride the boring silver comet trail or stone mountain...only safe places to ride.<br><br>
Luckily...I didn't get chased down or have to use my pepper spray in Cartersville this weekend!
Niem-I dunno-ask my coach. He doesn't want to burn me out.<br><br>
I wanna get my milage up so I can lose a beer keg or 2. Sherry is fluffy...fluffy = less speed. Sherry wants a cheap piece of plastic.<br><br>
I shoulda learned last week when I posted my odd triathlon dream where CS made me run back to back 31 milers...and bandit the ING marathon.<br><br>
For that I was made to take 2 days off<img alt="uhoh2.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/uhoh2.gif"><br><br>
I need a filter!
