Gotta get out there more often
Well, this past Monday I finally got back on the bike and did my 5 mile loop. I have no excuse for not biking more. I suppose I can try and blame it on my age (passing 40 last month), but that's a cop-out. Funny thing is that after becoming over-the-hill, I've noticed problems in my knees. Sometimes when I'm walking, I can hear a clicking in my right knee. I think a tendon could be snapping around a bone because my meniscus is worn out. In my left knee, I think I may have tore my patella tendon a bit after my last volleyball game on grass. sigh... pretty sucky having bad knees. Well, now I guess I have to ride the bike more since it's low-impact on the knees. It's goning to be hard for me to give up (limit) my tennis and volleyball.

went on a 30-40 mile bike ride in Napa two saturdays ago w a friend. granted, lots of stops at wineries and such, but quite a strain on my flabby self, days to recover. yet, i was inspired when i was done... we should plan some rides, put our over the hill physiques to the test.

Dude, sounds like you'd dust me easily. But it does sound like fun if we could manage it.
