Winter Riding
Nov 19th, 2007, 12:52pm
 
I am always moaning because the sun goes down by the time I get home and I don't get to ride. Soo I brought my bentech to work and ride it at lunch. Five laps around the entire facility is 2.5 miles. I warm up one lap and push hard the rest of the way. Gets the old heart to pumping and works the legs a bit. As long as its not raining or too cold, I get to ride. Smiley

I just keep mine here at work.  Usually work 5AM to at least 3PM than hit the Trinity Trail for 20 miles or better.  then when I get back I can check email and phone messages and work more if necessary.  What a life!  DJ

I settle for rides on Joe Pool dam at about 4:40 pm. I won't quite finish before dark, but there's no rush hour traffic there.

I'm sorry to report I work all night and get a good amount of sunlight to ride. Barry

Barry,
 
You still haven't told me about flying that Blackbird.

I never got a ride except for towing. I was in the back seat for an engine run and hit afterburn a couple of times. good thing we were chained down. Nice plane retired now so they say.
