I Hate April 1st.

I think it stems back when I was middle school age and my sister and mom came running at me yelling to come quick, my fish tank had broken, and the fish were everywhere. Yeah, I started to cry and get all pissy when I realized they were laughing. So reader beware of blogs and websites that claim great things, etc., it's Fools Day! Not here. Wednesday morning I did get out for a ride after dropping both kids off at school. I rode sections of the Dirtbag, both old and new. As the temps rose the gravel became a bit mushy and messy but still overall good. Ended with 3 hours of riding. The legs needed a break so Thursday was a day off. Momentarily I will be out the door, pre sunrise, to get a couple hours in before work this morning. Roads look a bit sloppy but no accumulated snow...yet. Sunday into Monday may be different, ugh. I hooked up the Supernova light to the LHT last night so all ready to roll in the dark. It's a pretty sweet and bright light that runs off a generator hub, I have a Shimano Alfine Dynamo hub. And all kinds of flash in the back. Out.

Ben - Geez, so sorry I warped your sense of humor for April Fool's Day. I did think it was funny, but looking back, I suppose you were too young for that joke. Safe riding! Love you, MOM

I recall that event differently--I had no idea you were so traumatized. Wuss!
