That's AWESOME! But... you're ahead of schedule. You're only turning 50, not 55.

cute. They were actually to avoid climbing a hill at the end.  The person who posted that ride on mapmyride had a turn onto Bailey Bridge Rd that has a monster hill. My legs were already like jello and that hill was out of the question.

True, but I have ridden that hill and it's a beast.  My legs weren't up to it today, I knew it and respected the limit.  That hill will be there other days to taunt me.

I hate hills like that...especially after 40 or 50 miles of riding.  It was like the hill on Winterfield during that ride we did last year.

That hill on Winterfield never ended.  The one I skipped has a hard climb with a sharp bend, like the beast on Tavern tri.

I think I prefer the hill on Tavern to the hill on Winterfield.  I really hate the gradual climb with the small flat sections.  It just feel like it goes on forever.  At least with Tavern gets it over pretty quickly.

it sounds a bit the half mile swim against the tide in one of my past races.  It was a very long half mile!

Can I interest you two with a ride on the IM Moo bike course, or perhaps the Triple H (Horribly Hilly Hundred) later this year?

hahahahaha....NO WAY!  I did HHH ONCE and I will never do it again!  It was miserable.

I might be able to ride on the IM Moo bike course in June, but it's going to be a pretty packed week with all the wedding stuff I have to do.

kaqphin - 2010-03-06 2:56 AM HI Dee - thought you might want to know... I FINALLY bought some probiotics... gonna try them for a few weeks with everything else Im taking and see if I notice any difference... Just got to remember to take them now!
I found it took a couple of months to see a difference. But I DID see a difference. I'm still taking them, in fact.


Thanks for the info - I will stick with them til the bottle is done then and see what I think.. they have to be kept in the fridge so the first step will be remembering to take them every day!

Good day Nibbs.

Mel, I thought of you as I worked on my front yard this morning.  Spent 4 hours raking, weeding, mulching.  It is looking a lot better.  I'm keeping my fingers crossed that all the perennials I planted last year return.

Judi, way to go with the long ride.  I too would go miles out of my way to miss certain hills.

If you foot the airfare I will ride both with you.  I just ask for a couple of days rest between the two rides.

Have you seen my log lately?   Lots of yard work going on!

I hope that your plants come out of dormancy too.  I lost a hebe this year...It looked a bit like a dark brown tumbleweed when I chopped it off on Saturday.  I still need to dig out its roots, but I will do that when I have something to plant in its place.

I have considered signing up for RAMROD this year, but it is on a Thursday and I have school.

I guess that it could be considered the PNW version of the HHH.
