Good news! I only spent $27 to fill up my tank yesterday. That means there's a little left over for some guilty pleasures......
Who says base training has to be boring? A mountain biker's got to live by his or her own rules. And with a lack of snow on the trails thus far, it's been easy to leave the road bike in the garage.
The two Generals, discussing the day's options....

And although he doesn't wear it often, the Stunt Double wanted to make sure his 2008 State Champion jersey was widely visible...
You know you haven't been riding much when the most liberally-used phrase of the day is, "Was that climb longer than usual?..........Seriously, was it?"

Turns out that practicing my "victory arms" while watching myself in the mirror isn't really training at all.... after 4500ft of climbing over almost 5 hours, I was beginning to feel like I'd been dropped down an elevator shaft......the never-ending pursuit of summer fitness shouldn't be as much fun as these rides...
Well I'm off to the California coast for a few days. I hear the clam chowda' is gourmet. Eat like there's no tomorrow...
