And my  tennis team made playoffs and I'm supposed to play tomorrow night.  Lots of ibuprofen and biofreeze will be used.

running4beer - 2009-07-22 9:57 AM Learned how to change a flat this morning!  I won't lie-- it wasn't at all pretty.  Took forever and it was gross out there-- bike trail still muddy from the rain, so I was a MESS by the time I got home.  35 minutes late for work today....

Anyway, Stage 7 and ~17+ miles complete!  Just one more and 23 miles to go.  Can't ride tomorrow since I have to fly to NJ for a morning meeting, and I don't think I'll be able to take my bike with me on the weekend, so Friday or nuthin'!

How's this for irony -- I just realized I'm signed up for a Basic Bike Maintenance class at REI tonight!  Would've been great if I got that class LAST night.  Doh!

Well, I guess another ~5 miles tonight to get over there and back means I can cut my Friday short if I really need to.

Ironic for sure.

LOL!  Maybe you can give the class some pointers now.  Or at least show them what not to do

kns57 - 2009-07-22 7:42 PM I've pulled a muscle in my right shoulder and neck. Haven't been able to get on the bike the last two days. I'll have to get in two stages on Friday and then one on the weekend after work.


Ouch!  Be careful.  Hope it heals quickly!

Ha!  Pretty close.  I did get to participate in a demonstration taking the tire off with levers.  And it was a toughy!  The teach actually snapped one in two in the demonstration.  Anyway, pretty psyched I went tonight - now I know about all the things I did wrong or didn't consider when fumbling through it. 

I think after the Tour's over I'll get a little tube changing practice and give my bike chain some extra love. Kiss

It's definitely a good thing to practice.  Tube changing is one of those things that gets easier every time you do it.

I got a ride in on the trainer this morning (taking it easy on the neck and shoulder which are still sore) and got stage 8 done and another 6 miles.  Just two stages and 28 miles to go.
