Ridiculously productive morning

[mousme]

I was out at the crack of dawn. Went to a WW meeting, went to the gym, checked out Sports Experts and discovered that a heart rate monitor is more than twice the price I was expecting, so I have put that purchase on the back burner until I can figure out if I really want/need one.

I am not taking my bike today. For one thing, it's raining(ish), and for another, my legs are like jello after yesterday's ride and today's workout. I don't think I could reasonably make it out and back. Maybe when I'm in slightly better shape I'll be able to cycle everywhere. For the moment, though, it looks like the bicycle will be taken only on non-gym days.

I am also quite saddle-sore, after nearly eight months of not riding my bicycle. I experienced this last year for the first few days, and then it resolved itself, so I'm not too worried. I have a good seat, so no need to replace it.

I'm going to have to bring in the bike for maintenance soon, probably as soon as the specials start.

Now I'm going to go make lunch, and get ready, slowly, to go to work.

Hey, I have a HR monitor that I don't use anymore. The watch component of it needs a new battery but it should still work, and the strap is compatible (at least it used to be) with most equipment set up with HR monitor receivers.

Ooh! If you don't want it anymore, I will gladly buy it from you. :)

It's all yours. An no, you won't buy it from me.

I can give your bike a once-over and recommend any further maintenance that needs doing.
