nothing new


We rode the Fletcher Flyer on Sunday! My first event like that I rode 50 miles. I haven't ever really riden more than 13 milies so it was a challenge for me. There were app. 800 people riding either the 50, 64, or 100 mile ride. They feed us and it was a really great time the weather was perfect. I am sore but proud I was able to do it. It truly feels like summer now. The heat is here to stay. I worked today then went on a ride today; the rose garden ride up sunset in downtown Asheville. The phish show was tonight so downtown was really crazy but the ride was peaceful and challenging. Then Tommy and I went to a show at the Brew and View which is always a good time. Something about that place makes it feels like summer fun. Yesterday, HR, Sammy, Dad and I went for a ride in Bent Creek. It was really great Sammy was a pro at mountain biking. The clouds began to gather and as we headed home a crazy lighting storm started up and poured rain. Tommy and I have been watching "Nothern Exposure" the 90's tv show from the beginning. I am really beginning to like the show. I think when I look back on it that show will remind me of this summer. Tomorrow we are going to Boone to take care of the lawn that had gotten out of control. Then hopefully we can go to Linville and go hiking. I have been wanting to check out some rides in Dupont. I need to check out the WNC mountain biking website...
