Winter Break Day 2

We got a good night sleep and woke to cold and snow. We had a late breakfast and everyone went swimming. I set out on a bike ride. I took off on the back roads and they were very icy. At a mile and a half in I went down hard on the ice. The back wheel just went out from under me. At least I know how to fall right and don't put my hand out. I was recording the ride and have it on video. I managed to cautiously work my way back to pavement and had a nice ride. I rode to Pine River and out to the Saginaw Bay. I followed the pine River and managed to get just over 11 miles in. The only thing that got cold was my right foot. I had the same issue in the race 2 weeks ago.

We all met back at the modular for lunch and Micelle and I took a nap. Our nap was ended when I got a couple calls from work. We got up, got ready and went bowling in Standish. We all had a lot of fun. When we got back it was time for supper and wrap the night up.

So much for Saturday.

End of Summer

The Best Time to Bike! On Saturday I traveled with Raymond to the Bear Claw Epic. This was the second annual race and the second time up there for Raymond and I. We got there with plenty of time to spare and got ready to go. Farley ready to go. I registered for Beginner Fat Bike or at least I thought so? I felt pretty good and knowing that I only had one lap to do I went all out. I passed several riders through the race and felt I did pretty good. This course has a lot of climbing and rewards you with some nice downhills. After I finished my race I put on a fresh shirt and went out on the course with the camera and my new lens. I took over 400 pictures and headed back to the start finish after Raymond finished his race. Raymond on his second lap. And the final climb. The beginner awards were going on and they announced my name as first place for Beginner Men 50-59. I was surprised, but did not protest. Aft...

January 27, 2012

It has been a while since an update and the common cold has been working its way through the family. Michelle and the boys have got the worst of it so far. It has slowed me down but has not put me down. Hopefully it won't get me completely. It did cause Michelle to miss 2 days of work and I missed one. We both missed Financial Peace University last night, we will have to watch the video. It has caused me to miss some training. However, I did manage to get on the trainer 2 days this week and hopefully again tomorrow. Dad had a procedure today and all was well. Had to get up early and pick him up. He had the procedure at Covenant so I was able to work for a while when he was in. We went out to lunch afterwards and then had a good visit with him and mom. This winter continues to be mild as we again are having above normal temperatures. We had snow last night and most of it melted today. They are call...
