Beat
Bill put together a vicious training loop to do laps on today, and I headed out early to join him. Now I’m back, showered, feet up, on the couch, snarfing baked goods at a rapid rate. I’m tired, sore, and very happy. I rode a bit in excess of 50 miles (I’m guessing), did…

I have one more research project I’ve been ignoring lately, that doesn’t really have…

Almost..
..dun. One last essay to finish polishing. Will check it off tomorrow. I’m looking forward to an all-day bike adventure on Saturday. I’m envisioning the singlespeed, up Miller Creek, over Hollowman, down to the river, up Cramer Creek, over and down the Blackfoot, and back home via Marshall grad. A drinking-induced late start will likely…
