rain, rain, go away...


So we went to a training ride this weekend. A lovely co-worker Russ was generous enough to lend me his wife's bike, and I tested it out on a wet, cold, but a-ok bike ride home from work Friday evening. Saturday morning, we woke up to drizzle but we were ready. We went to our designated spot in Golden Gate Park , met our very energetic trainer who taught us about gears, shifting, and then promptly cancelled the ride because the skies had opened up and it began to pour.

guess I'll go home & watch a twin peaks marathon?

Well, we tried. We were going to ride 21.14 miles around town. We will begin to train hard soon. Thanks for checking out our blog. We promise more exciting stuff to come! peace, anne

  4. Great job this past Saturday! You tackled those pesky Sausalito Hills like a warrior! I figure I followed you back from Mill Valley, I might a well follow you here too. Keep up the great work, and hope to see/ride with you again soon.

  5. Thank you for your comments!

    Joseph, I could not have done that ride back without you cheering me on. Seriously, I probably would have gotten lost in the Presidio and just started crying! If I even made it past Sausalito on my own, that is... You and the other ride leaders are THE BEST! I look forward to riding with you again soon!!!!
