Thanks man - just in here as this biking subforum is a 'prick-free zone'™.

Fish, get better quickly, because we need ya', man! I'm not going to be able to get out before Sunday.

Go Team Lefty! Oh yeah... Speedplays rock. Good choice Fish-man.

April 1-6: Family road trip to Carlsbad Caverns and Grand Canyon. 2,315 miles, but I don't think any of them count on here.

Today is 20 and snowing, guess I'm hitting the garage this weekend.

April 7: 5 miles
April 8: 17 miles

Man I hate riding on the trainer, but at least the iPod makes it a little more bearable.

April 8: 36 miles this morning in temps with windchills in the teens. Brrrr. Should count for extra or something. Gave one of my full water bottles to a teammate who forgot his in the car. Had a good ride. Instant karma's gone and got me?

April Goal: 416 miles
April m-t-d: 134 (32% of goal with 27% of month gone by)
