Ahhh, Poor Ben.

The plan was set, my day was dialed, and things didn't go as planned.
Got up early and at the gym by 5:45am. Did an hour or so of stuff. At work building bikes by 7:00 am. Ended up building and fixing bikes all day till almost 6. Was planning on the group ride but Jen was having pains and real tired. Thought I'd be the "good guy" (ha!) and go home and help out with the kids. The weather made the choice much easier. 40 degrees with a stiff North wind I can pass on most days!

Feeling sorry for myself I dove into the kid's Easter candy. Didn't go hog wild, just a few. So much for no candy this week. Maybe I need rehab for my candy addiction?!

Work at noon today so the plan is to get a few hour ride in this morning, after the kids are at school. Man, I miss March weather!

Read the following this morning on Guitar Ted's Blog, I really like it. I need to remember it.

"So, ride around the block. Ride to the store. Ride for an afternoon, morning, or
under the moon. Cruise the earth's crust wherever you are. Whatever you do, just
remember to cherish the time, stop and look around, and don't worry about
anybody elses version of what constitutes a "big deal" of a bike ride. Have fun-
go ride your bicycle".

Later.
