    Well spent the day test riding road bikes. After an day of riding lots of bikes, I am ordering my new bike tomorrow. One thing I did not like was riding on the drops, hoods and the way the shifting and brakes work. So I did the next best thing, a flat bar road bike. It is a road bike in every way, but the bars. I am so happy with that, it weighs 1/3 the weight of my dependable MTB. I have gone to N+1, 2 bikes. So distance rides, here I come. I just threw in a few miles as I know I rode further, but don't know how many.

    03/15 - 2.0 miles walking
    03/16 - 13.0 miles cycling
    03/17 - 2.0 miles walking
    03/18 - 13.0 miles cycling
    03/19 - 1.0 miles walking
    03/19 - 12.0 miles cycling
    03/20 - 2.0 miles cycling (road testing bikes)

    Total: 155.0 miles

    @VERDEMUJER - Yup, that's green for you! :smiley:

    @ANACONDA - Congrats on the step-up to the new bike! I hope you get many happy and efficient miles on it!! :blush:


    I got a short Lunch Walk in today and a short "run" in tonight with no walking! It was slug-slow again, but I did it! :wink:

    Must remind myself...no jumping on bad knee...no jumping on bad knee...no jumping, no even a little, on bad knee...ouch.
    The onion snow came today on the first day of spring. Okay better explain this since most of my school teaching staff looked at me strangely.

    "Onion snow" is a regional term used primarily in the state of Pennsylvania, referring colloquially to the final snowfall before the end of the spring season. Some sources indicate that the onion snow typically occurs after the traditional time for planting spring onions, while others state that onion snow is an indicator of when the appropriate time has arisen to plant onions. In either case, onion snow is defined as a light snow that melts quickly. This regional expression is said to originate from Pennsylvania Dutch culture and language.

    Interesting....but I was fully expecting the explanation of "Onion Snow" to be more like "It's that snowfall that happens when it should NOT be snowing because it's Spring and time for warming up and it brings tears to your eyes." :D

    @darkrider42: LOL! I like your definition of the onion snow much better than the one I learned as a kid.
    Brutal headwinds for the last three miles of my run seemed to suck the energy right out of me but I got it done.

    @clephant, @darkrider42, @jth11706, I ordered my new road bike today, I decided on a Fuji Absolute 2.0 LE. Should get it 7 to 10 days. And got it on sale too. Like the flat bars way better than the road bars, hurt my lower back to much.

    @anaconda469 A friend has the flat bars and loves them. I have drop bars, but use the flat part more than the drop (mine has extra brake levers on the flat part).

    I ran today, my longest run ever- 12 miles! (plus almost a mile of walking).

    @clepant‌ - I'm just southwest of Harrisburg PA and we are all hoping friday's snow really WAS the onion snow! Your coworkers must be transplants to not know the term :) Today is bright and sunny but a little cooler than yesterday -which got to 50F. I'll take it!
