nice social pace 46 mile chatty ride wtih Les and Terry after yesterday's 106 miler with AbB.

Resting up for tomorrow's ride -- last one before our next rest day in St. Joseph Mizzou and last day in Kansas!

Relaxing before 120 mile ride, hoping the rain stops and the wind stays from the west. http://bit.ly/hHNLh

Finshed with bike for day - 40 miles, then deraillieur broke and it and I rode SAG back. $200 for new one plus chain that went when it did.

CD is back on the road as Terry and I installed the new shifter, tweaked both derailleurs. New bar phat & tape and she & I be ready to ride.

relaxing after Wed eve at CHM & reflecting on losing use of the Cannondale with broken shifter.

digesting Marcia's great sausage and fried potato dinner and chilling before TOSRV 6:00 am departure, hoping rain will blow on by ...

enjoying Marcia's piano strands while waiting for home groupies to arrive

just posted this week's training blog.

just back from presentation on micro enterprise loan group talk by very bright Moldovan -- fascinating results for so little resource

... and checking into all the goings on my kids have out on the web. Amazing wealth of stuff once I start poking around.

Recovering from yesterdays 80+ miler heading into hefty head winds on the way out.
