Team Bear

Okay, so training and riding hasn’t gone so well for me over the past month. With riding on hold with the winter storms I was anxious to get back into things once the snow melted. Roads more or less clear, I had it in my head to start things back up after we returned from a short trip to Sitka. Well, a wood cutting incident has put a hold on that, although only a few more days and the stitches come out and I am going to hop back on the saddle for a tester ride around West Seattle.

Like Michael mentioned, motivation is hard. Although we don’t have any excuse, we signed up for this. Unlike for Beth, who’s motivation just has to be there, no choice in the matter, it just has to be…

January’s challenge to the bike, run and walking team, Let’s kick it up a notch! Beth is going to have to so lets get behind her!

Go Team Bear!

Training updates

Sometimes it’s hard to motivate in the morning to ride in to work.  Melanthia gave me cold weather gear for xmas this year which pretty much killed my last excuse for driving.  It was bitter cold this morning but armed with the right clothes it’s not too bad.  I’m glad I rode in since nothing clears the head like being on the bike and after signing up for the LIVESTRONG challenge I feel a little extra kick every time I saddle up.
