Well, it was a somewhat busy weekend this weekend.
Saturday, turned out to be a pretty normal Saturday. Got up, ate some food, did some things around the house and got out on the bike. I only did a little over 2 hours as it was pretty darn cold out, hovering around 20-25 degrees at the warmest. Plus the wind was blowing pretty good, so that doesn’t help. Either way, I put on my 14 pounds of clothing and went out for a ride. Once I was out, it really wasn’t all that bad. I took some back roads that don’t have much traffic and went down to Silver Lake. Its a nice 15ish mile ride, a little bit of steep climbing, but just the right amount of riding for this time of the year.
Looking east across the lake.
Winter heaven for fishermen in the wind.
Sunday, well, Sunday was Sunday. Usually, once or so a month, a bunch o f us head out to the Red Fox Pub for their breakfast buffet. 8 bucks for a bunch of good food?? Yea, I can’t pass that up.
That will get you fueled up the right way
After the frenzy was over, we just came back to the house and relaxed all day. Kelly and I rarely have any days off together, so it was nice just to hang out with her. Plus, the superbowl was on, but I think we really only watched 10 minutes of it. It was on, but why watch that when there is real good stuff on tv? Plus, you can watch all the commercials online anyway.
Other than the buffet and the relaxing, I kept myself busy by writing up some coaching plans. Yep, I am now a certified level 3 USA Cycling coach, and it was time to put that knowledge to good use…
Hrm, what else can I do with this thing?

Is this too much bacon?
