      Thanks. I'm pretty sure this particular pain is from mowing my yard. I'm disabled and have pain every day but this is a different pain. Pretty sure I pulled something in my back while mowing. Mowed some more today and made it feel worse yet. Bleh. Cycling doesn't seem to cause me pain unless I do more than 5 miles or so.

      Saw this kind of late I guess. I am at 219 for the month. 2 more training rides this weekend, then an MS150 next weekend.

      Actually--if there are any fairly serious riders on here, hit me up--I have a question that has really not been my issue in the past. Thanks.

      Started to go out for a ride and noticed my neighbors had their trash out. So back I went to put ours out, and realized I should open those boxes filled with things I ordered so I can rid of the boxes, and then realized I needed to tidy up the kitchen - oh wait it time to go off to work. Well at least I did get a couple of miles in.
