I took the road bike out and just spun ... http://outdooraddict.org/wp/2009/06/18/rest-and-recovery/ There really hasn't been all that much to talk about recently.  I was home and visiting family for a couple days and after a very successful surgery for a family member, drove back to NH.  All together, I put a hair under 2000 miles on the rental car in just ... http://outdooraddict.org/wp/2009/06/15/damn-you-rain/ So another day of not much going on today. For the past 2 days, I spent sitting in a car driving to Kelly's parents house. While I am here, I have decided that the only exercise I will be doing is walking around with the doggy. I think that in ... http://outdooraddict.org/wp/2009/06/07/the-word-of-the-dayrelaxation/ I am testing out a new application for my Blackberry called Bloglive so I can post directly from the phone.

The weather was nice on the days that I was scheduled to ride and I took full advantage of that. The goal on Saturday was to take the mountain bike out for some hill climbing. Roger that. We have some hills in the ... http://outdooraddict.org/wp/2009/05/29/quality-rides-and-now-rain/ Another rest day. So everything is pretty low key, especially with all the rain that we got today. I didn't get to do much except talk the dog for a long walk so even though it isn't much, I still got the legs moving. Other than that, I have to ... http://outdooraddict.org/wp/2009/05/14/a-status-quo-thursday/ That's the theme for this week. Taking it easy and letting the legs rebuild a bit after laying the beat down on them for 3 weeks. And boy do they need it. On tap for today is a nice and easy 2 hour hike with the dog and after that ... http://outdooraddict.org/wp/2009/05/12/rest-recover-and-repeat/
