The Countdown is Over

Class starts tomorrow…

It’s been a nice weekend that went something like this.

We typically don’t do much on Friday evenings because we typically cycle on Saturday morning.  It IS July, so we head out early.  I hope I can still find some time to ride the next twelve weeks.  We’ll see…

The Saturday ride takes us from Coppell, TX north to Argyle, TX.  Along the way, we roll along just east of Lake Grapevine, skirt by acreages with horses, donkeys, llamas and the usual livestock.  Most of it is quite scenic and hilly.  Yes, we actual DO have those here.

How far?  Well, for us around 42 (it just works out that way…).  Some do significantly more.  It’s good prep for Hotter N Hell which is in August (hope I can squeeze that in as well…)  In the cycling world, we are pretty much novices.  But that’s for elsewhere on this site.

The rest of the weekend was a surprise and has been spent with my VERY supportive and wonderful wife.  Since all hell is about to break out, she surprised me with a a little staycation Saturday evening, went out to eat and spent time together.  Time…  That oh so precious resource that we never seem to have enough of.  It is also something that will be in short supply the next twelve weeks.  I’ve been spending a lot of time prepping for class, so taking a break felt good.

The countdown is over…

Class starts tomorrow.
