Recap and catch up.

I missed posting yesterday since I was up early and riding before 6, a dawn patrol ride.  Despite it being early the ride was great.  The temperature was a balmy 21 degrees at the start!  I did most of my riding at Plum Creek, River Bluffs, and Time Waster.  2.5 hours.

The weekend was filled with gymnastics.  I was able to get some rides in however.  Saturday I dropped Avery off at gymnastics sections.  She and Brinna were helping.  Then I dropped Harper off for a play date.  Ride Time!  I somewhat last minute decided to ride some of the Dirt Bag course on the fat bike.  I was surprised to find much of the route still icy.  Oh well, I had the studs on.  The day warmed more than I thought, leaving the Mukluk a mess at rides end.  I also miscalculated the wind.  I should have realized I'd have a battle on my hands during the return when I was flying down county road 8.
Ride details.

Sunday I once again dropped Avery off, early, at gymnastics.  She was competing this time.  I had time for a short ride to the Race Track, the North Loop, and Friedrich Park.  About 1.5 hours.

Harper also had a birthday party so I stayed home with her while the others went to the gymnastics meet.  I too Harper to her first self-wash car wash.  For the Mukluk, not the car!  With no school on Monday it was a bit of an odd Sunday but I survived!

I also missed the rower yesterday morning so I'll go sweat on that in a few minutes.

Happy Week.
