So, it happened again
I went into the the front last night expecting to just tool around a little bit and then climb today. Well, that didn't exactly happen. I ended up having another one of those best night ever nights. Pretty much every problem I have been working and some I haven't tried, I did. The night started out with a flash of a crimpy steep problem in the v9-10 range, followed by a first try of the night send of a hard v11, first try of the night send of another v10-11 problem and then capping it off with a first ascent of what James Litz calls, "The second hardest problem in the gym." I disagree, I don't think it's quit that bad, but then again, we do the opening crux differently. Maybe it's just sixes...who knows. Anyway, it's off to recovery land. Hopefully I get some decent sleep tonight!

back on the road
I finally did it...I broke down and went to the bike shop yesterday and got a new tube for my rear tire. My fixie has had new life breathed into it! I am so psyched to be riding it again, especially since everything around here...or at least between all the places I go, is flat. I haven't ridden my bike in life 5 months and it is a blast. I went to the Smith's last night to get some groceries and stuff for the apartment and then rode it to work and to the gym today. I think I am going to hang up the truck for good...well, maybe not for in the rain, snow or if I'm going climbing outside, but you get the picture. My bike rocks! woo hoo!!!
