Morning commute brought to me by...
The Beastie Boys. That’s right, the Beastie Boys road with me this morning on the commute in, via the ipod. All week I have wanted to get this post into the blog, but it has been very busy of late. Big thanks to Taugimba for a great weekend in Breckenridge. We got out on two stellar rides and took a couple of pictures. The riding was awesome as I got worked into the ground. It always amazes me how big a difference a couple thousand of feet can make with regard to available oxygen. Our first ride took us to the top of Boreas Pass. It took me thirty minutes to pull my lungs out from my throat - no air up there. On the way down we dropped into some singletrack from the FC 50. Day two took me on some new trails that were extremely fun and beautiful. I felt like a very luck person to be enjoying three of the things I value most in life- family, friends, and mountain biking. Awesome to say the least! Thank you everyone.
After a good couple of weekend rides I was tired and rested for a couple of days. Lately, I have been trying to get into the weight room once a week and work on maintaining some core strength which I did Wednesday. Thursday took me out to GM for some hill work on the jeep road. Friday = commute = 2+ hrs of riding. I was hoping to race at Winter Park Sunday, but there on-line system would not let me register and there is no way I am paying $45 the day of. I thought $35 was steep. I am cheap. The way I figure the Leadville 50 is only $65, maybe I can work that into my schedule. That would make for a fine July the FC 50, the Leadville SR 50, and the Laramie Enduro. I better get to work.
Hope you have a great weekend. I will try and keep it simple.
