Greetings from the frozen north!

Greetings from the frozen north! Since I saw the last post, I know I've been longingly looking out the windows at the sun shining and realizing that I'd freeze my ass off if I tried to do any sort of a ride. Thankfully this past weekend, the biking gods were willing to grant me a quick reprieve and some unseasonably warm weather so I took full advantage of it. So here we go ...

I figured the only reliable place this time of year was running out to the end of Park Point, if you've ever been to Duluth I'm sure you've made the trip over the lift bridge and taken a stroll in the sand. So... Sand and this type of terrain calls for what type of bike class?


Well, yes, a Pugsley would be the correct answer... but not this man... I'm rockin the Monkey!


I do enjoy taking fun pictures while I'm out, so I'm always keeping my eyes open for stuff like this...


But come on now... would it be a ride without a little 'break'...


And what was the choice?? MMMMmmmm .... Yes... Yes I do have a Big Butt. (and yes, I did place that strategically)


Overall it was a good ride, Hell it was a GREAT ride considering I've been on the trainer for the past month or so. Ugh... we all know what that feels like. Too bad mother nature has backed her ass back up and shifted the mercury back down where it belongs. 41 degrees at about 1 pm sunday... and now tuesday... -12 and still dropping. Crap... Well back to the trainer I guess. Hope everyone else got out and enjoyed the nice weather... and I definitely hope it comes back soon.
