Wow, this good weather is absolutely spoiling me! Yesterday I went for a lovely little ride. I started out with the goal of riding 8 miles, not too long, but enough to get a nice work out, and ended up going 11 miles! I was very proud. haha. Some streches of the ride were quite difficult because of the wind, but overall it was really nice. I didn't tackle very many hills this time though. I mostly stayed on relatively flat ground.
Today I will head out again with a goal of 10 miles. I think I will try a new route today. A few times I've gone on this nice path that runs along the Mississippi River, but it's not very long so then I have to find other places to wander around and it's annoying to deal with all of the stop signs/lights. We'll see where I end up today...
My goals for the weekend are to do 15 mile rides on both Saturday and Sunday. I think the weather is supposed to be quite nice both days, so I think it should be possible. And other than biking, I don't really have any big plans this weekend, so I should have plenty of time!
The wonderful Paul Reasoner (Habitat 500 Committee) will also most likely be stopping by my apartment on Sunday sometime to have a look at my bike! THANK YOU PAUL! Hopefully he won't tell me that it's about to fall apart and I should stop riding it! I'm looking into the possibility of trying to get a bike shop to lend me a bike for training and the ride. I just don't think i'll be able to make it on my old bike... we'll see!
I don't believe I have any new fundraising news. I've been rather lazy in this department lately. Although I am assembling a list of potentail prospects, so I should be sending some letters out soon!
Well, I hope you all enjoy the weekend! And to my fellow Habitat 500 riders, I hope you have the chance to get out there and put in some miles!
