I wanted to post yesterday, but I helped a friend build a bike up for his woman. I expected it to take about an hour but it ended up taking over 2. Had to disassemble his old bike and reinstall on the newer frame. All in all it went really well. We had a good time building and watching Never Enough Dirt.

Tonight I worked out on the weight bench. I was really happy with the amount of weight I can lift, since I haven't lifted since last winter. My goal is to be able to max 250 by the end of February and I lifted 195 fairly easily tonight. Had my wife spot me just in case and all she said is you had better be able to lift this! Last year I got 225, so 250 might be a stretch. Looking forward to a ride here soon, but may have to resort to the trainer. Got lucky and rode 3 times in the woods last week before the rains.

Talked to Staubinator and we are planning on installing a new bridge I built for BP this Saturday. This will be the 2nd 20 ft.+ bridge that we have built for this trail system. Should cut out two nasty creek crossings. Hope everything goes well.

The New Year

All right...I have been wanting to start up a blog for awhile and just have not gotten enough time to figure this all out. I have a few friends who have blogs and have come to realize that this is a great place to discuss stuff. I have always been one of those people that took my training pretty seriously but never really kept great records of it, so I thought this would help out a ton. I look forward to posting a lot more, but since it has taken me awhile to set this up...I am going to say goodnight for now.
PS This has spell check! Great, I really need it!!
