Cold....

Rode this morning...just Mike, Roland, and myself....did a shortened version of the 5:50 ride. About 3 miles shorter, mostly because the streets were wet (we didn't expect that) and we started getting rained on when we approached downtown. Roland asked what do we do now? Mike said we had so much gear on that we probably wouldn't get wet before we got home. I agreed. My feet would have gotten wet first since I had no booties on but after a few minutes the rain stopped so it wasn't an issue. I was still rolling tires with 140 psi in them and I wasn't comfortable doing that on wet roads. I kept my center of gravity VERY upright.

The weekend was as uneventful as you could imagine...well, maybe not that bad. The Saturday morning weather found Jonnene and I on our wind trainers in front of the TV for a solid hour's spin. Actually a pretty good workout. We opened the back french doors, turned off the heat, turned on the ceiling and box fans, and got with the program. We sweated quite a bit doing our own workouts. Sunday we didn't even bother to go outside. It was okay as far as the actual temperature was concerned but it was dreary cloudy, windy, and felt colder than I liked. I had no enthusiasm to go ride and I also had a catch in my back that wasn't much fun (still have it but it's much better now).

We did do some things around the house. Jonnene did some reorganizing of a couple of closets and cleaned the place up. We discussed how we wanted to redo the closets and take advantage of some wasted space. Always something to do....
