Well, I just got back from our Caribbean cruise. Man, does riding a stationary bike on a moving boat start to get old after a few minutes. For that matter, riding any stationary bike, anywhere, gets old after the first few minutes. But I needed to get some miles in, to counter the effects of laying on the sun-drenched beach, drinking ice-cold Dos Equis, in 90+ temps, and eating five-star, five-course meals every night(my favorites were the lobster, the prime rib, and the pork chops). So back to reality of Minnesota.
Anyway, I got the road bike out for the first time in '08. I did my usual 20 mile out and back from home. Temps were around 50 with winds from the NW around 15-20 mph. A fairly uneventful ride, other than it felt great to be on the "steed" and I enjoyed the entire ride. My only wish would have been to stay out longer, but the sun wasn't cooperating.
P.S. Did I mention that it felt great...
