Back on the saddle, again
I got a ton positive comments after my last whinny post. I also got a few well deserved HTFUs. Lorri Lee pointed out that, if I quit riding "who would take sexy photos of Trish on her bike?", so when Tricia dragged my complaining self out for a ride on Sunday I made sure to bring the camera. Here she is on our beautiful California winter day, rolling along Empire Mine Road. Thirty miles, and a few choice words from my philosopher-friends did a lot to improve my perspective.
David Lowe-Rogstad helpfully pointed out "Rule #10 my friend. Rule #10." Tomas Ovalle chimed in with "I like rule # 5!" Thank you, gentlemen.
Pete, Joel, Chris, Jonathan, Laura, Veronia, Scott and Steve all sent some positive and hopeful words for me, and Mariel pointed out I was so old I should happy to be doing anything. At least that's what I think she said.
I think I learned not to post right after being disappointed.
Plus, I wasn't as far off pace as I feared. I was just so tired I was doing really bad math. So, plans for giving it another shot are in the works.
And hey, it's Valentines Day, so the whole world looks a bit brighter, even though it's raining.

I thought you were talking about Zombieland Rules - in which case #8 is the most important.

No mention here of any kind words from LanceOldstrong. That guy must be a real tool.
ReplyDeleteNo, LanceOldStrong rocks and is deserving of his own post. Just read http://ccorlew.blogspot.com/2010/10/powerhouse-bass-lake-double-century.html
