Quietly getting through, nothing is really wrong, little issues slow the work a bit, not too much, not high volume, high quality is worth the effort. I feel the winter work adding up. Good things to come in Spring. More work today, always more.
Quietly checking off the list, the mtb rides are now mini-epic ski tours. An hour on the bike is usually two-three on wax. Getting another today. Putting together the 'o8 program has been fun, new stuff on the way, mmmm fresh bits to replace the cooked. Might as well get it done now.
The see-saw is balanced right now, better things and the work is working. No promises until April, all build up for now. I almost fall off every day, close, pretty close but the balance returns and the see-saw steadies. Listening to the sounds, go off to hear more. Perfect. Quiet. Wind and dark aren't enough to stop the process as the season wears on.
Got it done last night on the rollers after work and then went to the cluster f*ck that was the caucus. It felt cool to be a part of the process, I guess it took a really shitty president to get this many people involved this time around. Sad, but true, I think. Rollers are again on the menu. Do work.
I don't see the break in the clouds, too cold and wintry here to look for Spring. Three weeks from Sunday is test #1. Little pieces are coming together to build something bigger.
Coming together to build a solid foundation doesn't happen in a binge of pedals and food. Laying out in front of me the pieces to see the calendar as the spring season approaches and the light between the cracks fade, sometimes after dark, sometimes daylight. But always with the longer view.
I have lust for good weather or the weather that allows good base work to get done. I can manage another month and after that the juggling will really begin. Go out to get in the time. Go down the hill to get it done a lot easier. Other than that the rollers and the running takes it. Have you tried to run more than an hour? I think that makes me a runner if I do that, I am not a runner. I hope to get the program dialed and the base filled.
Maybe fast boy fenders is looking for a guy in Colorado to product test.
