I’ve been without beer or junk food since Friday. My mood is improved, but I don’t know how long-lasting that will be.
I’ve had muscle aches in my legs for months now. They disappeared today. I have no idea what’s going on there. I hope they stay gone. I still have the normal neck/shoulder mess going on, but that’s not going to go away.
I reserved a hotel room in Bedford Indiana. I’m riding with Timothy, and he wants to drive up the night before. This should hopefully allow me to arrive at the race well-rested.
I need to take the Fargo out for a last-minute ride on Thanksgiving to make sure everything is ready.
I consider this race as the kick-off to focusing on my health and fitness again. I did well in 2007 and 2008. I did a ton of riding in 2009 and 2010. 2011 saw my first neck issues, but the riding was still good. 2012 has been poor. I’ve drank too much, ate too much, rode less, had physical and mental issues to deal wit...
I’m not waiting for the new year. January first is just another arbitrary date. I’m starting now.

No More Beer
If one thing has to be to blame for my recent weight gain, it’s beer. It’s not just the calories from beer, but it’s the fact I generally eat more while consuming beer. I also tend to go out to eat and drink rather than cook a healthier meal at home.
That’s changing. I’m cutting out 100% of the beer for an undetermined amount of time.
I went grocery shopping earlier today. I did not buy beer, ice cream, or snack foods. I bought the things I need to cook at home, and a few “quick and easy” meals that aren’t too high in calories.
I just ate my dinner, a black-eyed pea soup with onion and celery. I’ve made better before, but it was warm and satisfying.

Pain and Stupidity
I’ve had recent flare-up of neck, shoulder, and back pain. Just for added giggles my wrists have been very painful too. I don’t know why this is happening, but it’s really poor timing as I’m about a week and a half away from racing Gravel Grovel, and I really haven’t done any training.
Today I remembered that my doctor told me to take naproxen daily to help with this. I did for a while, then basically forgot about it. Even with the pain returning, it didn’t jog my memory until today.
So, I took the pills again a little bit ago. I wonder how much training time I missed due to my forgetfulness. I hope they work well enough.

Last Weekend’s S24O
Tim, Patrick, and I headed out to Jefferson Forest for another overnight bike trip last Saturday night.
It being winter with forecast lows around 30, I knew my sleeping bag wouldn’t be enough. I have a nice winter bag in my wishlist, but haven’t been able to purchase it yet. In the meantime, Timothy loaned me and old, heavy, but warm bag. It was bulky enough, that the Big Dummy was the only bike I would be able to use fo...
Loaded Dummy
It had rained earlier in the day, but by the time I left home, to meet Tim and Patrick, the roads were beginning to dry.
I arrived at the coffee shop about 30 minutes early. Tim was already there. Patrick was running late. That saved us from getting drenched. Shortly after Patrick arrived, the skies opened up and it rained hard for about 20 minutes. If he had been on time, we would have been out in that rain.
Once the rain passed, we rolled out… where Patrick immediately had a roofing nail in his rear tire. We quickly fixed it and moved on.
We rode 20ish miles to Jefferson Forest – where I was able to make it up the hill without walking the time – and set up camp. Patrick had fire duty, well, because he can actually get a fire started.
I brought hot dogs to cook on the fire, which worked reasonably well. Patrick and Tim both brought dehydrated “camp food” that they complained about. I shared the hot dogs.
I’ve had too many camping trips where I was uncomfortable and cold. I have trouble sleeping on the ground. That wasn’t an issue this time. The borrowed sleeping bag, while old and tattered, was warm. I also used my existing sleeping bag for extra padding. I slept well and wasn’t cold.
Still, getting up in the cold morning makes me a little grumpy. At least I had my #zombieraccoon hat for warmth.

I made coffee with a pour-over. The water was heated on my Esbit stove.
My breakfast consisted of cookies. It was enough to hold me to real breakfast.
We packed and headed back to town for breakfast at Twig and Leaf, which is a pancake and eggs kind of place.
Another S24O complete. I enjoyed it. I still need to buy better winter camping gear, but I did okay with the borrowed bag.

Car-Free – The First Year
One year ago today, I sold my truck back to the dealer and rode my bike home. Since then most of my travels have been by bike. I rented a car once, in January, for a trip to Bowling Green. After a neck flare-up made riding the bike difficult, I spent some time taking the bus or a cab to work. Luckily, the neck issue ha...
There was some trepidation about living without a car. There are still some things that are less than ideal (getting the dogs to the vet). I’ve managed and I don’t regret the decision at all.
2012 has not been a good year for bike riding due to a number of health and mental issues. I’m hoping my second car-free year is easier and happier.
This message was actually “pre-recorded” on 11/3, but won’t post until 11/4 at 9:00am. I’ll be on a camping trip (by bike!) and won’t be able to post.

Winter Camping… Again
Although I did a four-day tour back in June, I’ve really enjoyed the quick overnight trips, that I’ve done in February and September. Tim, Patrick, and I are leaving tomorrow for another quickie to Jefferson Forest again. Asher may join us.
I still don’t have good cold-weather camping gear, but Timothy was kind enough to loan me his bulky, but warm, sleeping bag.
Due to the size of the sleeping bag, and the extra clothes I’ll be carrying for this trip, I’ll once again be riding the Big Dummy for it’s cargo capacity. I’ll also put on the wideloaders to better help support the load.
As an aside, I’ve really grown to dislike the Xtracycle Freeloader bags. I’ll probably replace them with something else when money allows.<eot>Home | Map | OBTAINING CIPRO ONLINE | Obtaining cipro generic |
