Happy Day, Earth...

Well, here it is Earth Day and I drove to work today. I need to get a system figured out so I don't have to rely on the car so much. However, I did get to bike in to work two days last week so there was a little less carbon in the air.

These past few evenings I have taken advantage of the 15 degree above average temps to get out and ride, trying to work off some of the winter rust (aka poor shape, flab, etc.). It has been good so far and a great way to unwind from a stressful work environment. I just hope I can keep it up and make this part of my daily schedule. Tomorrow I might try to get out and explore a local mtb area that is the closest to my current abode.

I also tried my hand at wheel truing for the first time. I am not sure they were too much better than when I started but at least the brake and rim aren't rubbing so much.

Lastly, my yearly mileage is almost on par with 2007 - time to see if I can up the ante and beat the monthly total...
