Going fricken stir crazy.

Why you may be wondering? Well a few weeks ago I was riding my bike and it felt that I had a flat. I would fill it up to the proper psi and it still felt like I was riding on a flat. Went to the LBS and he said everything felt normal. That's when I noticed the bludge on the sidewall. Thinking I could just swap out tires I stripped the tires and grabbed the ones from my old road bike. They don't fit. 

  

I had to go back and order tires for the bike which will take about a week to 2 depending on the order going in. So I've got No wheels for another week or so means no open road rides with the group on these nice warm days. No riding during the weekends because of my kids classes I teach. I don't want to just be stuck to the spin bikes for the next 2+ weeks until I can get everything done. Grrrrrrrrrr. 

Anyways I can't be to upset as I have some great running partners who help me keep pace when needed. Love having my kids to run/bike with me when I take them to school. Going to keep it up and use them to help me train for this years triathlon. 

A bit of a rant.

Something that just burns me happened to me today. I am bike less for the next week so instead of stopping my kids from riding their bikes I run along with them.

Today I ran to school and on my way home I was passed by a guy riding his Mtn bike hand less & smoking a cigarette. As he passed me he blew smoke in my face and flipped his smoke just in front of me. I yelled out at him and he flipped me off. So I picked up my pace a bit and let my Tourette's come out a bit and cursed his ass out.

Just pisses me off that people would just do shit like that. But I did get in almost 2 km running.

Today was an amazing day.

Today was a good day. Today I'm 108 days sober, I got to hang out with the bike gang this morning, and I got new shoes (and even got them on sale), I played around a bit and BBQ'd enough to feed an army. 

All in all it was a great day except the fact that I don't have a bike for min a week. Had to order in my tires as they are specialty ones. $60 later I just want to get back on the road.
