March

Well sometimes we have good intentions.  I did.  I wanted to keep updating my blog for my thousands of fans but did not.  But here I go again.
This weekend marked the return to riding, for me.  The sun is starting to have that power that says hey it's safe to be outside now.  I decided to rip off a 2 hr xc ride on Friday, it hurt.  My body had forgotten how to handle that kind of thing so by the end of it all I was pretty tired.  Also the trails are not the greatest this year.  With the big thaw we had in January and subsequent freeze and additional snow the single track is not worked in very well and has a washboard feel when they are.  So it is not as fun as it has been in years past.  Today's ride was better I was able to go for longer and I felt better at the end.  Here is to March going out like a lamb so that we can get onto more pressing matters like riding on dirt and racing our faces off.
