Snow Chance of Riding Today

There is snow chance I will ride today. After three weeks of beautiful spring weather old man winter is coming back to visit Ohio. The Cleveland weather God is calling for 6-12" of snow. Which is fine with me since I have to watch the kids all weekend and my shoulder is still a little sore.

After my crash two weeks ago I realized how old my Giro helmet is. I bought the Exodus in 1997, I definitely think its time to get a new helmet. The Giro that I have now has held up through many crashes and has no cracks. I have been eyeing up the Giro E2, not a fan of the looks of the Zen.

I was going to do Bike New York next week, however I am unable to travel next week. I think I may just ride at West Branch or Vulture Knob.

What do you call a cyclist who doesn't wear a helmet? An organ donor.

Slacker

I have been quite the slacker as of late. I did do a trail run on Tuesday after work, not long. Ran about 2 miles then felt a little pain in my left shoulder. Still sore from the crash on the SJ first ride. I may try to run again on Thursday. I was thinking about trying to ride on Saturday, but now its going to snow.

First Ride

Had plenty of fun on the Spokejunkies first ride last Saturday. The only downfall (no pun intended) was my crash about 7.25 miles into the 16 mile ride. Started going downhill hooked my right arm on a tree branch flipped over and went down rather hard. The worst part of the crash was that no one witnessed it. My left shoulder was still hurting on Sunday night. I thought I might have had a torn rotator cuff, went and got a evaluation on Monday, its not torn.

I may try to get a run in this evening after work. Thursday may get a short road ride in.
