Good Morning

Almost afternoon! We slept until 8:00 this morning so very late start to the day. And I completely forgot about doing the pre icing business. Never crossed my mind. Went for a bike ride around the block which I now know is 4.1 miles. And cut 2 minutes off my time from the other day! 23.38. That is work, too, though! I always thought bike riding was easier than running but not so sure about that anymore. That hill coming up 150th Ave. nearly kills me! Doesn't look that steep but it's long. Made it without getting off the bike though. And that doesn't seem to bother the leg at all. Don't feel any strain at all like I do when walking or running.

Good for you! Already cutting down your time. Yeah, biking is good - especially the hills. How is that tailbone treating you? That is why I don't like to ride!

Tomorrow is your day off! Today was mine. So hot I couldn't do it. I did walk over to my garden and pulled weeds for an hour. Then Bart and I went bowling! I know I'll be sore tomorrow.

I might have to get a new bike seat if i am going to continue riding the bike. Very uncomfortable. Also need to have the rear brake fixed. I've tried to do it but can't make any progress. Will see if Paul Smith can replace that brake maybe.
