What the hell is going on?
Needed to figure out just where the hell the race is tomorrow. So well... online is the place to be i guess.
Best thing? Fahking printer here is not werking. Pen and paper scribble.
Yesterday i tried a good off day effort. An 8 mile ride. With...
The trail-a-bike and the trailer bolted to the trail-a-bike.
And if that wasn't enough work as it was, the trip's destination was the Market at Cutler Mills. For the weekly shopping trip. Yeah. I figured it wasn't enough to haul a trail-a-bike AND a trailer, i needed to load the trailer up with groceries. And with the spillover in my messenger bag.
Lots of "LOOK AT THAT"
heading back, three women riding with their kids went out of their way to give praises. One said, you should get a medal or at least a massage. Another flashed a big grin and a thumbs up along with a 'nice job' and the last said 'you should get dad of the year honors'
but, honestly - i barely registered the faces, much less the greeting, it is a lot of high torque work dragging that train along at 10-12 mph.
But it was fun and i was wearing my ONE LESS CAR t-shirt. And the girls had a blast.
And i got on the bike WITH the two girls and it wasn't on the trainer. Granted it was over 80°F out there. Pretty damn hot. Would be nicer if it was like today and only 61. I was working. But that's good.
We just finished driving around Jamestown sort of on the course. I took a wrong turn coming back and we wound up by the RI fisheries. But we stopped down by the lighthouse and Holy CRAP is it cool down there. The rocks and the waves. it was VERY cool
racing tomorrow should be intersting. We got at least 5 of us in the 4s. Should be interesting. It is sort of flat, one or two hills, if you can call them that. And a long down hill run to the finish.
Then it is G-ster!
peace
