Just Like That

It's race season!!!  I've been so busy I feel like it snuck up on me kind of like vacation did :-).  I did order some replacement tires and tubes and well as dig out the Yankz laces I won doing XLMIC's Jingle Bell Hell run .

swapped these out over the weekend

Those are butyl tubes.  I got tired of pumping up my tires every 3 days with latex tubes.

New shoes with Yankz laces installed

I still need to go over my gear checklist and decide what to bring to this event.  I'll have to less the house about 4 am Sunday, not really looking forward to that.

Here are a couple random throw in pics from my ride this evening.

I can see for miles and miles

and miles and miles and miles :-)

Oh, an update on Goal #3 I set at the beginning of the year. With eight weeks to go, I was down six pounds.  I figured I had it in the bag since I can lose a 1/2 pound a week just by watching my diet.  Well, after three business trips in six weeks, I gained all six pounds back! Luckily I normally don't travel that much (and lucky I didn't gain more), so I should be able to lose it again, just not by my goal date.  With that said I have a couple trips coming up in the near future.
