    Phx was 70 and beautiful today but tonight we're to drop into the 40s. I like it when it get a bit colder as it feels more like Christmas :happy:

    Bad news: took a wrong corner on the bike path again. Good news: found another canal bike path to explore.

    I would had rather been biking but you gotta do, what you gotta do. Goal is to have the backyard reworked by January 7th. Now that I've told MFPs, I'm honor bound to meet the date--LOL!

    I didn't pledge many miles to this challenge, because I haven't ever been what I would call a cyclist. But as of today, I've biked 14.5 miles, 5.5 miles away from completing my pledge of 20 miles. I'm thinking I'll double my pledge by the end of the month. :)

    Doing my best to get some rides in but it is not easy riding in the dark and freezing fog after working up a ladder all day, managed 18 miles yesterday but my camelback froze up and I could not get a drink so I cramped up and fell off my bike outside the digs I am staying in, good job I made it home before it happened !!! Can't wait to test out my new road bike on the weekend though

    It was 47 when I biked this morning at 6am. While that doesn't sound too bad, when cruisin' along at a stately 11 mph, it was right brisk! Phx is to reach 72 today and have wind/rain on Thursday & Friday. Come on rain!!!
