Whew!

I finally managed to be in town for one of Herr Doktor Beers' weekend rides. Black Hill to Shaeffer and back. A nice ride, but it appears I'm still not quite ready for prime time; I may be in better shape than I've been since I started riding but boy, I've still got a ways to go. Fortunately, I wasn't the only one gassed out after the BH - Schaeffer leg, and I was able to get a lift back to the BH parking lot to load up the Dos and go limping home with my tail between my legs.

On the other hand, I did my first commute with Alex in the trailer yesterday. A little over 9 miles each way, mostly uphill in the evening when I'm nice and burned-out from work. If I can keep that up through the end of the month when kindergarten starts, I'll be making the local racer crowd think they dropped a chain, I'll be smoking them so bad. (Not really, but hey - it's my Blog, Dammit!)
