Forgot about this area of the web site! Been a busy past year since that 1st post. In December, Russell plead guilty to murdering his wife, and is a guest of the state for the next 23 years. What a shock that was. None of us who rode with him had any idea. In December also, I had a bike accident. A pit bull got me and caused me to crash. I was off exercise for 6 weeks recovering. I sold the touring bike, and the old restored Trek, along with a fancy fountain pen. I put some of the money towards a new bike that I am gaga over. Almost 1,200 miles ridden so far this year. Now that there is adequate daylight after work, I ride Tues and Thurs for 90 mins in the hills. Weight lifting has been sporadic. Need to get regular there.
