So as some of you know I haven't been able to ride my bike on Kristi's trainer for the past 3 or so weeks. Well things have improved so today after work I got on the bike and started to ride.

I AM SO OUT OF SHAPE!

The route I chose was from my house, down Dimple Dell, then up to Wasatch, and back. It was the up part that killed me. This is no small hill. It's not as steep as some, but gets steeper gradually. At the top it just plain sucks. My legs turned to jelly! About 4/5ths of the way up there is a circle to one side. That was nice... I just went in there and kept pedaling on the flat to get my legs feeling better. As soon as they were better I continued my ascent. If it hadn't been for that detour there is no way I would have made it.

It was definitely nice to get back out though. I'm still unsure about fast descents on that bike since the tires are so narrow. I'm just afraid of the loose stuff. Practice makes perfect!

Uh oh, what’s wrong with the trainer?

It wasn’t the trainer… it was me…

I know what you mean about the out of shape thing. I went and played basketball with my ward the other night. The next day I felt like I had been hit by a truck!
