True to form, you have *no idea* how that reads to the rest of us sick folk.

Very cool, DesmoDiva!

SM & MD, how did your ride with TNT go today?

Our 20-miler went well.  Mid 30's here, slight breeze, but sunny. 

[somegirl]

3 hours of karate for me this morning.

Mid-30's?  You need to shop at the place DesmoDiva does!  It's in the 70's here, a little chilly for my blood but it will get warmer. Our ride was good, they planned a simple 14 mile loop up near Carefree Hwy for the first get together.  Everyone on the team is super nice and seem like a great group of people to be on a team with.

Nah.  Long cycle pants, an Under Armor shirt, bike jersey & jacket.

As I mentioned earlier, it will be cold (30s or 40s) in Tahoe when we start in the morning.  I think the highs last year were in the low 60s.

Fortunately, we train in crappy weather all season, so we've got the gear.  There were a ton of riders last year scrambling to find stuff to keep warm in. 

Oh, we have about 6" of snow on the ground this morning, so I'm glad we rode yesterday!

That's just about what I wear in the cold - minus the jacket.

We found a Pearl Izumi store up at the outlets at Anthem this past weekend too. So in another month or so when winter gear is discounted we'll be stocking up! We did like the team, the members all seemed really nice and ready to have everyone succeed.

I love getting out and riding with other cyclists - there just something about that that's exciting!

After we were done riding and had all gone home, I decided to hit the gym and do some weights and spend an hour working on a spin bike. It was a great day and we're looking forward to this coming weekend!

Worked out this morn.

Slowly building back up.
