Well today is another leg shave day. I began shaving my legs on the advise of a friend back in 88 or 89, I got my first carbon bike from him back then. It was a Specialized Allez Epic. It weighed exactly too much. Easily 20lbs. It had Shimano 600 Ultegra, I loved it. Just didn't have the discipline to put in the kms......and eventually sold the bike. However, I did keep shaving the legs for most of the next 20+yrs. Broads dig it. I normally shave them every other day, but today was after a 3 day stretch. They somehow get smoother if you wait longer between shaves.
Last night I did a short recovery ride after putting in the 103 kms on Sunday. I chose the crit course again for it's smooth road, no traffic, and fairly well lit corners.
Last week Vic and I rode there and saw a deer. The week before the whole team rode a few blocks away and was basically joined by 2 huge deer. Last nights wildlife sighting was not surprising save for the fact if was a huge skunk. I am always amazed at how many animals you see when riding , especially in the city. I have seen mice, snakes, a mole, possums, deer, skunks, racoons, falcons, all at close proximity. Even an Armadillo in Florida.
Once , while mountain biking I just about hit the biggest deer I have ever seen. That truly would have sucked.
I just love this picture, it has nothing to do with anything...... |
