Well tonight was quite the ride, my coldest to date and also the snowiest. Right off the bat I managed to have my foot come unclipped when I was pulling back on the pedal, and my foot swung backwards and I hit my ankle on the idler pulley of the Burley, this hurt a great deal and still does, I also have a large bruise there. After the cold numbed my ankle :) the ride was quite pleasant, there were very few cars on the road and the ones out there were giving me a lot of room. I went for a physical today and my doctor told me that I should lose 2 inches off my waist in order to have a healthy body. People don't realize that just because you exercise doesn't mean that you can't get overweight and have health problems associated with it. Obviously I'm going to try and eat better from now on and get a lot of exercise, hopefully I can have those 2 inches off by next fall. Well I don't know if I will go riding tomorrow or not, I may just wimp out and go on our treadmill instead. Until then, ride safe and have fun
