lots of riding, scenes of death, reset odometers, and overall insanity today.

right off the bat when i woke up my idea was to climb. took alot to get motivated but coffee worked after a while. getting set up to head out my odometer was reading in a different language so i went to change the setting. woops... i reset the damn thing. looking at it the other day was in my mind so the numbers put back in after noticing it should be pretty accurate.

after climbing zion and feeling somewhat winded my mind snapped and decided to take over in place of my legs today. up zion, down long hill, up long hill, down zion, up zion, down long.....BAM!!!!

i ran over and killed a fucking squirrel!!! somehow no damage was done to me or the bike while going over 30mph. i felt bad about it. after hitting it (leonard he came to be named) i turned around and headed back up to see if there was anything that could be done. it sucked. leonard laid flat struggling to breath. couldnt watch so hopped back on and rode away.

back to the ride...
finished going down long hill. rode out to lindbergh rd. stopped at the corner store and headed up lindbergh. then i become psychotic. swithing into high gear i started to grind out the small sharp climbs on longhill. eventually i started talking to myself out load and was witness saying, "this is insanity". :)

got home, ate, hung out. and am now preparing for tomorrow. ride;
