Team Chocolate Peep Disease (Page 8)

Threw down another 78 mintues this am on my trainer- as I said in my logs, soon the trainer will become one with my body like that lady in Kansas with her toilet seat- if this weather doesn't shape up! (it was 9 below this morning, snow forecast through the weekend......)

 Let's have a strong finish to the week- and catch the Peeps Army!

Yes- it does get a little time warpish- I usually make sure I have a movie or something- but when you look down and only two minutes have passed since the last time you checked the clock, you think 'WTF????????????????????? I thought it had been at least 15?????"

Since we are sharing, this is my new ride I got for Christmas, wasn't sure if I was ready for a tri bike, I have only been doing the sprints...  This was the multi sport specialized put out; made for racing but in road bike form. (They are not making it anymore, I got it on closeout!)   I like him.  No name yet, not sure if he will get one.

I rode him for 75 minutes last night on the trainer, I did spinnervals 22.0, I think the time goes by fast because (yes I know I am weird) I feel like I am part of the class on TV! Not that I compete against them or anything.....

You owe me a new Keyboard! That is one sweet Azz bike...One of the best paint schemes and wheel set I've seen on BT.

When I last checked (around 7) - we were leading the pack by 2% over Peeps Army- LET'S GET A BIGGER LEAD. Everyone push a solid effort so we can widen that distance between 1st and 2nd and lead strong going into week 3. 

 WHO's with me????? Pedal, Pedal, Pedal!

PS I'm a big girl now- finally bit the bullet and just got clipless Look pedals and Sidi shoes- no more running shoes on the bike for me ( well, once I bring the bike in to have it all hooked up on Saturday afternoon) This damn sport is not cheap, huh? Thank God I love to shop!

that's exactly what i said after buying new pedals, shoes, etc. and today i want to go buy a new  bike computer :-)

good luck with the pedals-- i was shocked at how much easier it is to go uphill with them!

i'm off to a spinning class this a.m. and then another ride this afternoon if i get this slow leak on my tire fixed, so my mileage will get back up there and here's to a 1st place week 2??!  

Hey guys,

I had good intentions of getting more rides in this week, but came down with nasty cold or the flu yesterday (actually, it started Wednesday but REALLY hit bad yesterday).  Hope to be feeling better and back on the bike asap.  Sorry!

not much worse than being sick! Hope you feel better soon!

Knock Knock! What is everyone doing this weekend??? Hopefully I am getting on my bike today.  I also have a babysitter this afternoon so my hubby and I can get a couples massage!!! It was a Christmas gift from one of his clients, pretty cool gift, uh! He also paid for the babysitter...

Looking great team!

Hi - just a quick reminder that I am on a work conference from tomorrow, for 3 days... I will update the weekly results for the challenge when I return.. so just make sure week 2 is up to date on your team spreadsheet and I will grab it on my return!!!

Have a great week!

I got 16 miles in on the trainer last night as I watched The Flying Scotsman.  Need to watch it again when not spinning so I can hear it this time!  Interesting movie if you haven't seen it.
