Finally....


We've finally gotten a little bit of snow. Princeton looked great the other morning with the clouds and snow. I take 2 or 3 of these shots per year...one day, I'll get a great one. Haven't been up to Monarch yet, but I think the snow has finally been coming. Perhaps tomorrow or a 1/2 day next week before we head off for the holiday.

I got conned into joining the local gym. I don't have a problem with people who go to gyms, more just the gyms themselves. The one I've joined is pretty nice...I'm doing cycling specific lifting using resources found at this website:

Its not a lot of fun, but after just a few weeks, I can tell that if I keep it up I'll be strong going into next season.

I don't usually hit the gym until after 8 at night. I've been riding my vintage performance fixie back and forth. The streets have been wet a bit, so when I was in Denver this past week I picked up a set of SKS race fenders. Super simple to set up and should work on the Trek roadie as well. I've also set up the handlebar with an incredibell and specialized light for the night ride. With the fenders, maybe I'll not use wet and rainy conditions as an excuse as much as in the past.
