Our weather has warmed up a little as of late and it is hard to tell whether it is the start of a warming trend leading into spring or whether it is just wishful thinking. Either way, the warmer weather has been a welcome relief.
I suspect that spring might be around the corner as bears in Yellowstone are coming out of hibernation and our pups are starting to shed their winter coats a little. With a little luck the roads will thaw out and soon enough it will be time to ride outside. Although our winter has been really harsh on the local roads...lots of changes in temps have led to some scary potholes everywhere that could easily taco a wheel in lickity split time.
Until our weather is consistently warmer and the snow no longer frequents us, I will continue the personal time with the indoor trainer. It finally dawned on me to switch out saddles on the trainer the other day. The trainer came stock with a big wide, uncomfy saddle that just did not break in (or break me in) so after 2 yrs of straddling the stock cycleops saddle, it was time to switch it out to something more in line with what is on our real bikes. The hope is it will make it just a wee bit more comfy to stay on the trainer longer...hope springs eternal I guess (keeping with the 'spring' theme)...silly puns
