springing forward

the beginning of daylight saving time always sucks. i HATE losing an hour of sleep! oh well, it works out better in the long run...more daylight to ride after work!

well, got out for my first ride of the year yesterday. it was a chilly 54 degrees...chilly after being in 75-80 degree florida weather all week! no, it really was a beautiful day for riding yesterday. hines drive for 25.5 miles. the only thing that hurts is my ASS! not having sat in a bicycle seat for 3 months and then doing a 25-miler, i have a good idea what it feels like to be a male prisoner. too bad the warm weather won't stick around.

i have my tests this week and hopefully the ol' ticker will be okay and ready for punishment this year....and for the rest of my life for that matter! i'm also gonna try some running this week to determine if i can run down in louisville at the end of next month. i'm keeping my fingers crossed.

i survived south beach. barely. i should be dead. i don't remember ever feeling as bad as i did on wednesday. that's not gonna happen again any time soon. south florida pretty much sucks. the people down there aren't very friendly. there was a brutal fight right in front of us down in south beach as we ate dinner. i heard gunshots on monday night from the hotel. there were a couple of other things i observed during the week that i didn't like. i was more than ready to come home. the only thing i did like about south florida was the warm spring weather. it was an interesting trip though. i learned a lot in class and got to at least experience south beach. if you've never been, you've got to experience it at least ONCE.
