Daddy Day Care!?

So this morning I drove to Kevin’s house and we rode from there because he rode my road bike last night to see if he liked it and did 30 miles!! So he just kept it at his house and I went there in my car. We rode all the way to his daughters daycare and then to work. We rode:

28 miles
16 MPH AVG
27.5 MPH Max
1 hour and 44 min

I now have 61 miles on the new tires and 40 on the new shoes. I am not 100% sure but I think that the new shoes has helped a lot with the calf cramps??? Not sure about that yet though. Registered for the Endless Summer Watermelon Ride yesterday and hopefully will register for the MS 150 today. Scale still at 325lbs.

Graham Swamp & Ride to work!

Well last night I rode at Graham Swamp with Jim & Kevin O’.  I bought some new Bontrager Race Mountain Bike Shoes today!! We rode about 1.5 miles in the trails while flirting with rain. Never did rain really but I broke my chain in half!!! $!#$$^@%$&^@$&*$&((!!!!@!!!!!! So anyway we walked back to the trail head and I left my Remedy 7 and me and Jim took turns riding my Kona which I brought for him to ride. Well a few minutes later another rider came to the trail head and said he could fix it for my so I got my bike and broke chain and he showed me how to do it and did it for me. So not only did he help me fix it but he taught me how to do it for next time!!!! I owe him that was a long drive for nothing! So back on the trail we went about 3 miles this time and then the lightening came and we dropped Kevin because he went back to the trail head by taking a shortcut he found. So we finally made it back still skirting the horrible rain by about ½ a mile and headed home. Loved the new shoes!!!!!
This morning I rode to work alone no one else could make it! I made record time! I am getting faster and faster this morning I did

11 Miles
18.6 AVG MPH
34 Minutes
28.6 MPH MAX

Scale this morning said 325 again after my food fest last weekend at Texas De Brazil & Chevy’s.
Me and Dana went to Typhoon Lagoon last weekend with Kevin O’ & Riley!! Had a blast got there at like 11:30am and didn’t leave until 7:00pm. I was WTFO!!! We did all the slides and also had a great time with Riley. We stayed at the Mona Lisa Suites Hotel!! Dana did a great job on the hotel! It was beautiful!

Graham Swamp!!!

Graham Swamp was awesome!! Me, Kevin, & Mark Peck went. It was only like a 45 minutes drive and all 3 bikes did great on my bike rack! It was with out a doubt more extreme than hanna Park but at the same time alot slower due to alot of up hills. There was some soft sand but alot less roots. The big down hills were awesome! There were 2 down hills i wouldnt do and alot of ramp/jumps i wouldnt touch. Alot of it is also very technical. I will go back and often it was a nice place not too far away that can be done after work!

Bridges

Did another bridge attack! 5 full trips again! That’s 10 up and 10 down. Hit 38.1 last night on the way down. Rode a total of 20 miles. Still had some leg cramp issues but I am working on that. I love the new tires! I will post pics later. I got the red walled Bontrager RL. They are 700x23 instead of 25 but I liked them a lot and they worked well. Me, Neal, And the 2 Scotts came out. Kenny was on his mountain bike with mountain tires but he hung!!! Hitting Graham Swamp today with Kevin and Mark Peck. We’ll see how that goes. We have been getting a little trash talk in the email so we will hear some call outs in the swamp!!

Last night me, and Kevin went to Hanna Park and rode the north loop and a few other random trails, about 3/4 of hte way through Kenny showed up and rode for a bit. Kevin had a rough night! First he tried to Football block a large tree that had fallen and his shoulder lost. Second he wiped out and took a bad spill over the handle bars when his handle bars hit a tree on a narrow pass. Then he got a flat. So yeah he had it rough!!
Headded home and me and Dana had dinner with my buddy Tommy and his G/F at Chillis.

Bridges...

Me, Kevin, Neal, and Scott rode the Nocatee bridge today. Me and Neal
rode from the gate at US1 and Palm Valley, and Kevin and Scott drove
to the bridge. I rode a total of 20.5 miles and did 10 climbs up the
bridge. That's a total of 5 round trips. I was able to stand up and
power up the bridge once and boy did my quads burn. The ride back I
started getting bad cramps in my left calf. Maybe some more nutrients
next time.

Ichetucknee Springs

So we went campng and tubing!!!! Had a blast! Got there Saturday
morning rode the river from the south entrance to the end because the
first entrance had met capacity already. That night we cooked
hamburgers and hotdogs and mac n cheese. Had an awesome camp fire, and
made smores. Weather was awesome! We camped in a nice tent and could
see the stars I will be doing that again soon!! We got up Sunday
morning and rode the river from the north entrance and got big
inflatiable boats this time instead of tubes. I swam about a third of
the way and Riley even got in the water with me for a while. Me and
Dana really enjoyed camping with Kevin and Riley. We got some good sun

No swimming here!

We'll we tried to go to Typhoon Lagoon and it was closed due to
capacity. So we drove to Blizzard Beach guess what they were also
closed due to capacity. We went to Disney's Yacht & Beach Club to swim
at their pool since it is suspossed to be the best. It was! Awesome
layout and was huge! The bottom of some of the pools are sand so that
is neat also.
Went to the gym this morning that's the second time since we've been
here. I also went on Thursday morning had a good workout. They still
haven't fixed the safety issue with the lateral pull down machine I
think because of that this will be our last trip to the buena vista
palace. Sad.

Last Night @ Disney's Quest

Well last night we went to Disney's Quest. It was just OK. It was like a giant Dave n' Buster's or a giant game room but all the games were free. It was OK but i really wasn't in the mood to play games so it was just kinda whatever. I could be fun though. Its alot cheaper than going to a real game room. We got in for free because of our annual passes but otherwise its $40. We then ordered in so pizza and wings and a sub from a delivery place that is open until 4am. Yeah it Sucked hard core!!! they didn't even bring it to our room. We had to go down and get it. We got a 2 litre of sprite and ended up with Coke. Food was cold. Wont order there again. Going to get some food in a few then we are going to Typhoon Lagoon.
