Down and Out

Media_httpfarm4static_mfbrv
My knee is still bothering me. To the point that I stopped 3 miles from work today to call in my back up. Hopefully pedals with more float, or maybe platform pedals for a little bit will help with the pain. This week has been one of no riding, some crappy weather and lots of meetings. Tomorrow morning is an early one at the shop as we roll out our March Madness Spring Sale.  If you were waiting for a sale to purchase that new bike, or get your old bike rolling.  Now is the time. As I sit here at work, waiting for my lady to come to my distress signal I wonder where the month of March has gone.  It's the 20th.  Do you realize that April is less than two weeks away?  I remember in November wondering when it would get warm again so I could start riding. Now it's warm and I'm not riding as much as I should.. but it is happening some. There is also a whisper on the wind that I may have some weekends here and there off.  That means riding with family, day trips to the mountains and well.. having a somewhat normal woman's schedule again. But that's just a whisper so we shall leave it like that. Other happenings are as such :
  • The shop won the Best of Charlotte Magazine. (Yes, crazy!)
  • Dirt Diva's meeting this past Tuesday
  • Tarheel Trailblazers of Lake Norman meeting last night
  • Our "Experience" wall at the shop is taking shape as you can see from the photo.  A large map, hand outs and soon to be TwinSix tshirts!
  • The more I ride my cyclocross bike, the more I want to #1 build it with Fu-Bar's and mimic my Salsa Casseroll.  #2 build my karate monkey back up.  Full rigid single speed goodness is calling to me for some reason.
  • Been listening to a good amount of Al Green when possible lately
  • Need to get the family car checked over for inspection, I hate cars.
