I'd like to start riding my bike again to work.  The days are getting long enough to where I can, but it's a bit cold.  Plus they're doing construction along the road I usually take, so it would be dangerous for me to ride.  Yesterday I noticed that they finally changed the construction warning sign from ROAR WORK AHEAD to ROAD WORK AHEAD.  You can be sure that every time I drove by I would roll down my window and roar at the workers.

Time - 46:14 (avg. pace 8:14)

Splits - 8:12, 8:08, 8:12, 8:21, 8:19, 5:02 for 0.61 (8:12 pace)

From Steve Piccolo on Wed, Mar 10, 2010 at 15:30:31 from 155.99.208.204

Cold?

From Burt on Wed, Mar 10, 2010 at 15:33:15 from 206.19.214.144

Yes guys. Running in the cold and biking in the cold are two different things. True it's not that cold to wear I need more than shorts to wear on a run, but without gloves for a bike ride, forget about it.

From Britta on Wed, Mar 10, 2010 at 16:15:37 from 99.61.112.252

You are a speedy clown!!

From Burt on Wed, Mar 10, 2010 at 16:35:39 from 206.19.214.144

Oh my gosh, my grammar's horrible today! I have flatulence of the fingers.

From allie on Wed, Mar 10, 2010 at 17:26:13 from 67.177.0.102

wear was the mistake? not seeing it...

From allie on Wed, Mar 10, 2010 at 17:27:28 from 67.177.0.102

warning: this is PG-rated

my sixth grade teacher once called me diarrhea mouth. THAT is a true story.

From Burt on Wed, Mar 10, 2010 at 17:50:52 from 206.19.214.144

I started P90X all over last night and did Ab Ripper X. Laughing at your diarrhea mouth story hurt my stomach. THAT is a true story.

From Nan Kennard on Wed, Mar 10, 2010 at 18:04:22 from 174.51.250.151

Ya I dont wan to hear abut cold. It dosn't get cold in Phenix. But I can atest to biking being miserble when the temp is below 25 digrees. Not fun.

From Toby on Wed, Mar 10, 2010 at 21:51:00 from 216.194.124.36

Hahahahaha...it isn't cold Burty! You need to toughen up :)

From auntieem on Wed, Mar 10, 2010 at 23:58:07 from 67.182.146.94

Yes! I hear you about the biking; I too am ready to ride more. After the 50K, I will be commuting more by bike; it is great X training, yes?

From Burt on Thu, Mar 11, 2010 at 00:17:47 from 98.177.220.145

I'm tough Toby. I swear. LOL!

auntieem - It is great cross training. Plus you save on gas. It's the best!

From Burt on Thu, Mar 11, 2010 at 00:19:58 from 98.177.220.145

Everyone - if you haven't done it yet, go to jtshad's race report (number 2 on the Hot Discussion list), and give him a comment. We've got to get me bumped down. It was nice being on top for a while, but now it's getting old. Go Jeff!

From Samantha Dean-Howard on Thu, Mar 11, 2010 at 15:47:00 from 90.195.99.128

From Burt on Thu, Mar 11, 2010 at 15:51:19 from 206.19.214.144

Yes. It gets exposed when I'm hunched over on a bike.

From calliej on Thu, Mar 11, 2010 at 22:12:59 from 97.126.141.220

You are hilarious! Good speed today. If you think it is cold in AZ try growing up in bitter cold -30 MN. Now that's cold! :)

From Burt on Fri, Mar 12, 2010 at 00:02:56 from 98.177.220.145

I'm not funny at all CallieJ. But the next time I grow up, I'll try that.

From Samantha Dean-Howard on Fri, Mar 12, 2010 at 05:15:08 from 78.32.130.9

Now that is not a good thought Burt you hunched over cycling past a group of hot men working and them roarring at you ha ha ha
