It’s Like Winter Just Began

In two days March begins but with the first truly Winter like snows falling just this past few weeks, a pile coming down upon us today, it is hard to comprehend that Spring is just around the corner. But it is, and just as I have saved enough money for a trainer. Could there be some good deals out there right now? I’ll look, but maybe I will have to wait until next year. Meanwhile the white water, a Wisconsin tea keeps falling. Some plows broke down under the weight of this slush fall.

Here is another trainer manufacturer. Kinetic is working hard to capture the market also. They are supporting mountain biking as a High School sport, something WORS has committed to.

I have this pile of bikes to get in shape too. The weather has been so abnormal I don’t know if the roads will be safe to ride sooner or later. Looking at my exercise log I find that I have not done any serious training of any kind since September. And keeping a blog relevant requires that I actually do something continually that one can write about and provide pictures of. I’ll have to keep closer track of Metro Mountain Bikers activities, visiting the site more often. I have to become more active and involved, something that will be much easier when we can afford a second car.

Thanks to Alois for his contribution. Misao keeps posting about the dog while my friend from Korea suggests that he would make a tasty meal. I’m sure he was kidding.  Guess what I am thinking in this regard as you gaze upon Ike’s, our dog’s latest feat.

Not included in the photo are the books he actually removed from the shelf.

I’ll just let him enjoy the snow, …for now.

Ike loves the snow. It’s like he’s marinating in it.
