I battle kudzu in the summer when I cut my lawns. Bermuda grass is dormant from mid October to mid April.

I've been thinking about gloving. Seems like a win win. I don't carry anything in or out. I would glove up as I exit the car.

Yeah, that’s a bum deal. I went to an all boys catlick school and we didn’t have a prom, and over the years every now and then I bemoaned that deprivation. For a long time. 
But who knows, considering how inept I was with girls at the time I prolly avoided a prom disaster leaving lifelong, debilitating scars and all.

My alarm cat went off at 5AM but that’s my usual wake up time anyway.
Going to my ride. I will quote Khalil Gibran from The Prophet:
But let there be spaces in your togetherness,
And let the winds of the heavens dance between you....
And stand together yet not too near together:
For the pillars of the temple stand apart,
And the oak tree and the cypress grow not in each other’s shadow.

Of course throw n fetch won’t work on cats. Just one more reason why dogs > cats.

No season means weights again. Acclimating back from little bits of weights as maintenance, to almost a full blown workout, is tough.

10,000 years ago cats were treated like gods by the Egyptians. Cats have never forgotten that.

Trails were briefly open this morning since it froze last night.
First ride on my new frame, its so much smoother than my old aluminum frame, but still has an entertaining short wheelbase.
To quote datlas , it was 100% fun

It is, if my son doesn’t want it it’s getting buried with me.
I think one was an Extralight with orange handlebar tape and tires.
