Can you say YAHOO!!!

YAHOO!!! Finally we get a perfect warm day on a weekend! I'm guessing it was around 60 degrees today. With trails still potentially soupy, I decided to do some trail work here at my house. I have been working on this training trail for a while now and am adding some technical and more interesting features to keep me motivated. Here is what I built today...

After trail work and lunch, My wife, two of our close friends and I went on a 12 mile, paved trail ride. I decided to pull my Son in the Burly bike trailer. I had yet to haul 40 extra lbs around on my fixed gear so I went for it. Can you say hella-good-training? Not that the going was so much harder but the stopping! We had a great ride! It was just a great day to enjoy being outside!

Here is a great photo of the Ultimate Pirate (my wife) and our Son after a ride last summer while pulling the Burly bike trailer (yep, sometimes even I get a break!). Note the Flag Flying at our casa.
