Some resolutions

Lots of fun in the last few days. We are certainly enjoying the town, the area, and many cool things so close. The symphony in the park last night, for instance, and the many lovely places to eat and drink. Fun, and potentially detrimental to the finances. They deserve their own post, some time in the near future.

I have two bits of news, tied to my ride today. I’m not in very good shape right now, and want to fix that ASAP. I have long term goals, mostly next summer, but nothing concrete for the rest of the year. So I need some. First, I’m plotting a nice hard 3 day backpack in Yellowstone later this fall. I am actively partner hunting, as a second person seems like a good idea in bear country, so speak up!

Second, I’m going to accumulate 100,000′ of human-powered vertical gain next month; 3,333′ per day. Should keep me honest. Third, and not really related to anything but Karl, I’m growing out my beard for the next 40 days or until Karl finishes the AT, whichever comes first.

Moving up..
