January 2006, I rode 610 miles. Including two 70+ rides in shorts and jersey weather.

January 2007, I rode ZERO miles. Bitter cold, snowy roads. No thanks. I didn’t even ride the trainer in the basement. I did run 120 miles, though.

I went on my first ride of ’07 today, and it was great. Did 30 miles at lunch with the crew. I rode very hard and was amazed at how good I felt. Especially coming off of the treadmill marathon 3 days ago. It was the first pedaling I’ve done in 7 weeks, and I felt like I picked up right where I left off. Other than my butt being sore…
