Weekend Workouts.

This morning, I planned on joining for the Westborough Landry's group for a long ride, but I turned my alarm off my accident. In a fit of panic at 6:40am, I googled group rides for later in the morning. I met up with the Charles River Wheelman for a very pleasant ride. Check out the stats below:

I stayed on my bike for the entire ride. My heart jumped out of my chest several times. I do not like to ride as fast as many of the group members, but luckily, I can keep up with them despite my breaking on downhills. I catch them on the uphills!

***I am getting stronger! The hills are easier!***

This was a very amusing ride. I did not know anyone. I am not familiar enough with all the roads of Needham. I arrived at the start just in time to start. I asked on genteman his name because he declared himself a part of the 41 mile group. Bad move sir, I didn't bother introducing myself to anyone behind me because I was not going to detach from Bob! It was a great ride and I felt good at the end - ready for another 50!

This afternoon, I tackled my bike computer. I've had my bike computer for a little under year with no function other than a form of intimidation and to act as a front for my biking ignorance.

This afternoon, with the help of this You Tube video, the little bugger was finally calibrated. I highly recommend this video! Sigma computers made easy!

I am also pleased to report that the readership is strong with hits and visits spanning the globe. Here are the Massachusetts cities that pop up most frequently.

Well, I need to eat some dinner and rest up. Tomorrow, we have lots of biking and running planned.
