Boring

Not much happening on this blog. But someone told me it got linked into some other sites, so I guess I should write something. In any case writing about biking has grown tiresome... It's more fun to actually do it of course. Kinda like masturbation vs sex I guess.

This morning, did a nice 15K ride.... on snow ! Yep the skiings still great but biking is sucking bad. But I realize that even a mediocre day on snow is still better than road biking. So I wouldn't mind actually skiing year round, as long as the snow wasn't present in the lower altitudes on the mountain bike trails.

Glad I'm not training for bike racing this year, otherwise I'd be majorly stressed out. Intervals on the road bike in 30-40F weather - yuk. Some mountain bike races have gotten postponed due to the extremely deep snow pack this year. The Spring Thaw happens in a week and a half, and in normal years there's usually some snow in the higher trails. This year they're going to have to reroute - I bet it's 6-feet deep up there now. I don't feel like doing this race, but according to my contract, I guess I have to :) Hmm, the things I have to do to get shop discounts, the savings of which get negated anyways by travel expenses to races...
