Our Ride From Buckeye Woods

Rosie and I rode out of Buckeye Woods in Medina County.  It was a beautiful hot day in April!  There were several long, easy climbs ( I call them ramps).   And some great downhills runs:).  The ride was followed by a swim and whirlpool at the Medina Recreation Center.  Then on to Eatn Park for a healthy late lunch.  It was a great day!!!

A Challenge for 2010

I am issuing a challenge to anybody who might read this:

See how soon you can get in 100 days of exercise! Any day that you engage in activities for 30 minutes or more counts. Start counting from the first of the month, if you can remember what days you exercised. The earliest date you can finish will be April 10!

Exercise is good for everybody! And it's never too late to start trying to do better! I've been a lump for a while, and I need to get back on track. Is anybody here ready to join me?

Peggy's Loop

I wish I had taken some pictures, but Peggy and I have our own Quilt Barn loop that she made up when she first started riding last year. It's our favorite for hill training, and there are many barns along the route with quilt squares painted on them. So I guess I am also training in looking for quilt squares. You know we will be looking for them on GOBA.

We got hill training AND wind training today.

In my own backyard

I rode the Black River Reservation from end to end today, about a 13 mile ride.  This is a view from the steel mill end of the trail.  It was wonderful, the weather was gorgeous, and the gorge was beautiful! I got a  sunburn on my cheeks!
