About Me

I'm a bicycle rider. More to the truth I train on the bike to stay fit as I get older. I train to fight off the age. Diebedes, high blood pressure, trigeminal neuralgia, unwanted weight and the problems from that to. There is a host of other age related fun to. I let myself put on 110 pounds over about the last 12 years. Then the body just had enough. I was falling apart. So I started doing the only thing I knew how to do. Train on the bike. I was a competitive Cyclist from 1979 to about 1992. I gave it all up. Bad choice. In the end I would have been far better off on the bike. Oh well. The lessons continue. That's really the truth of it. The lessons continue. Everyday, every moment. Everything is connected all the time. Well, that's how I see the Universe for me. How you see it, is your business. Ah freedom of thought. I got married to a wonderful woman March 21st 2007. The love of my life. It's true! It took all these 58 years to get ready to love this one beautiful woman. A writer of poems. A writer of pros. So many people know her already.

That's More Like It

No ice. No snow. No bone chilling cold. 55 degrees felt like a mid summer day. I was a little over dressed, but, not much. I carried a thin jacket in my jersey pocket if I needed it. Just extra weight is all it turned out to be. Not to mention the extra pair of long finger gloves. Just did not want to be cold if the weather took a turn. Weather was good but, on the edge. The good edge was during the ride. 3 hours and 23 mins., 50 miles. Now my last ride was about the same time and 33 miles. What a difference. Climbing in a stout gear. Taking on Swede hill and feeling fresh. Feeling good for most of the ride. It was good to see that I was coming back to a normal kind of form after the cold weather and intestinal flu. I was just hoping it would all come back together. So hurry for some warm weather.
