Ghoulie March (biking) Madness!!! (Page 27)

We are a Ford tractor family.

There are JD's around, too.

OK, time to change and get the hell on the road for a quick ride before someone else ambushes me. Talk to you all this afternoon/evening!

Later Tom

Have fun

Bonktown has had nothing good in days.

I just want a jacket I can wear this spring when I'm riding outside.

Is that too much to ask?

I'm heading out.

Going home and chaning clothes then going for a bike ride.

I'll check in later this evening.

Hey Ghoulies! I got 15 miles in over lunch today and had a nice ride. My sit bones feel like they're starting to acclimate a bit (finally!), I'm figuring out the basics of shifting and cadence bit by bit, and my neck is ALMOST used to the riding position

I had to cancel my swim today, but I'll be able to make it up later this week no problem. Run and ST tomorrow...

Ok gang.  I'm going to head out early and see if my knee will cooperate for a short run.  Just for grins and giggles, thought I'd leave you a video to check out.  It made me laugh today.

Hey all. I am too lazy to go back the pages and pages I have missed. I did scan them but..... like I said, I am lazy today. It was beautiful today. I should have done yard work. Nope, I did my long run, took a nap and read a book. The first daffodil opened up today in the yard!! Got the first crocus going as well. No matter what comes up with weather, spring is taking hold! My run today was 10.7 miles on the dread mill. In spite of it being perfect weather I did not want to have to run by the bridge construction work, several groups of houses being built with the compliment of construction workers. That is what happens when I don't do my long run on Sunday. None of those people work then. Ah well, the run was slow, slow, slow but I got er done!
Hope you all have wonderful Ghoulie evenings. I am going to a friends for dinner while the DH has a political meeting. This will be becoming a treand I bet!

Wow, I actually got to watch that here! Most video sites are blocked. That's a funny clip.

Good luck on the run Kim. Let us know how it goes!

Kim's running Toppage!

Great run Robin! I hope you had a good show to watch or some good music, because I can't imagine being on the treadmill that long. Nicely done, Ghoulie

x2 I was supposed to do a 10 mile run on a treadmill once, I could only go 6. I was soooo bored.

Nice job Robin

That was funny. Thanks for the laugh Kim.

Evenin' Ann. Get your ride in?

So my big bike ride did not go as planned tonight.

It was 58 out, but breezy. I had no tights, they were all still wet in the washing machine. I thought I'd be fine in shorts and long sleeves, I probably would have been.

I had a flat and I have more problems pumping up tires than is legal. I wanted to get out of the house by 4:30, it was more like 4:45 until I got going.

I was moving along ok, lots of hills the first couple of miles but something didn't feel right. After 6 miles I stopped to take a look and I realized the back brakes were rubbing. I adjusted them but dropped my bike in the process. I started moving again and I hear a loud pinging noise.

I stopped again at the top of the hill to take a look. It sounds like it's coming from the front but I'm not 100% sure. I also started having problems shifting. I should have taken a right and headed out to finish my ride, but I went straight and headed home.

I still need to take a look so I can ride tomorrow night. If I can't figure it out I'll have my husband drop it off at the LBS at the end of the week while it's raining.

Hi Tom

Sorry about the suckish ride Ann. Hopefully once the LBS has had a look it'll be back and ready to do your bidding the next time you decide to head out and b-slap some asphalt. Will it be quicker to take it to your usual LBS or to take it with you when you go shopping for a TT bike?

OK Ghoulies, I need to check out for the afternoon. I've got a few loose ends to tie up and then I'm outta here. I hope you all have a nice evening!

I can take it to local LBS this week. I'm not going shopping until the following weekend.
