2009 Tour De Rook

| No Comments | No TrackBacks
Well, after over 2 years of not biking because of the rollerskating back injury at The Fuskers™' 10 year birthday party, I finally put myself back on the bike. Stats are as follows:

  • Top Speed: 19 mph
  • Average Speed: 10.9 mph
  • Elapsed riding time: 27' 29"
  • Total Distance: 5.02 miles
  • iPod: MatchBox 20 - Exile On Mainstream
We won't discuss my weight other than to say I am probably at the heaviest I've ever been. Still, all in all, I am happy with my first leg. I was expecting to hurt worse than I am right now. Of course, as always, my legs end up hurting worse than my lungs. However, if I stick to a daily routine of biking, I suspect that will change soon enough, and I'll be burning up my lungs.

I doubt if I'll be able to get into shape soon enough, but if I do, I'm going to make a run at bicycling to River Falls towards the fall.

Control

Politics is the control of wealth and power. You are being conditioned to condemn politics as petty and boring, thus granting all the more control to the powers that be. You are either a part of the problem or a part of the solution. The choice is yours.
