198 - What the? refocusing!

I got Rachel (my wife) out again on her mtb today and we had a great time! I sure like the opportunity to get out and do things before going to work in the afternoon. She did a great job and enjoyed the downhill sections. Hopefully she'll continue to enjoy riding. Justin and Emily (his wife) went with us on a "double-date" of sorts since they were off work today. Fortunately Emily survived the OTB experience coming down Hulls Gulch!

I was shocked to see my weight down to 198 again this morning since i've not been eating too great. I have decided to refocus and concentrate on that 190lb target prior to 4/16's departure for Moab.

My son Ethan celebrates his 10th bday tomorrow, wow. A decade blew by without me even noticing. We're having a party at Pojo's (a Chuck-E-Cheese type joint of mayhem). Elle's got her first soccer game tomorrow and as the head coach and daddy, I will be very proud of her!

200 - Hmmm




Had a really fun ride/session with Justin, Swede, and a new guy Andrew last Saturday. About a year ago a group of guys got together with the local IMBA group and created something cool called "Rock Islands", a "XC technical" trail. Nothing too death-defying, just really tricky lines that should provide plenty of room to grow for a while. Prepping for Moab next month!

Here's the guys having fun. Oh, and I think my weight-loss has plateu'd indefinitely. Not sure what else to say..

198.5 - Back in the saddle again

I did get out for a ride last Saturday, did about and hour and a half on the bike. I was NOT feeling it either. I went to bed too late on Friday night and had eaten like junk. So I had some low octane fuel in the tank and paid for it out on the trails. I bonked early into the ride.

Looking forward to Moab!
