Face Lift

Incase you haven't noticed! I changed a few things around... My original template was exactly that, a template; and it was beginning to sag in certain areas, so I did what most Americans do and I gave it a face lift ;) Also to explain the banner it'll be like that until Valentine's Day. I figure with it being so easy to change I might as well theme it alittle.

Mile Signs...

When riding out to McCook if you do not own a computer for your bike it is easy to have an idea of how many miles you have ridden *at least somewhat* not the most accurate, but hey better than nothing huh? Depending where you start it is usually a 50 mile route more or less and usually ends up being more! The sign is somewhat refreshing and motivating letting you know that you have made it out that far already... and even though it says mile 17 I didn't start at mile 0 Rd. I started at Mile negative 17 Rd!!!

on the road again..

i rode north east to mccook. along the way i ran into an old friend. the zebra.

the wind was pretty steady, i'd say at 15-18 mph. rode a steady pace, not hard, but not easy.

once i got there i ate a muffin, coke and coffee.


i like to suffer on my bike, on long stretches of road, in the great state of texas!

it was a great ride, and hope to do it again..

Extreme Point

I think that it said something after the word extreme... but when it says something like "Extreme, Beyond This Point!" why would I not go!

South Padre Island 10k

A good friend of mine Omar has been wanting to get into the world of cycling and running. I told him that he needs to do an event, that even if he gets last place this helps you catch the bug!

So he calls me up and says hey there is a 10k at South Padre Island "lets do it" I really do not want to... so I wake up for the run and call Omar "no answer" ok I tell myself, I am not going then! Omar calls me back several minutes later. NOW I am committed. I always remember feeling like this at times when waking up early for cycling rides, but after the ride was done I was so happy that I had made that small sacrafice! This was no exception...

13 mile run...

A couple of weeks ago I attempted to run 13 miles. The most I have probably run before is a 10k. My good friend Jeff said that I would loose count, that after awhile you just kinda zone out. So below I devised this innovative "rock" system. Everytime I ran one lap I would move one rock over haha, the track is 1.5 miles per lap.

Are you aloud to run in a cycling jacket if it's cold outside? Thanks Omar for showing up for support at the end.
As everyone knows I just got back from vacation, well this is the number one reason NOT to leave your dog with your sister to dog sit! It's kinda hard to tell in this photo but my sis made up this b.s. story how my dog got into the trash but really her and "friends" decided to shave his head and give him a moe hawk!

Back & Tired!

Ok guys, I'm finally back from Kona, Hawaii and super tired. I will post pictures after I get over this insane jet lag. I have been traveling literally for over 24 hours!
