Rain fell off and on all night and into morning. Chilled off. The heater runs OK on medium setting w/o setting off the alarm therefore I must be safe. The heater has been on since last evening and will be on into tomorrow. Staying comfortable.
No riding today. However, for the cyclecross crowd there is a race this after. Cycle cross weather usually is shitty, hard on the racers but even harder on the spectators. No combination bicycle racing and beer drinking – past the season and this is Utah. Rain fell but quit b4 the feature race went off. The course was over bull dozed raw earth that turned gooey w/ addition of rain. The course layout was very spectator viewing friendly, the fans can heckle the races right up close, if you were nimble you could catch the same racer several times in the same lap. Shitty. Man, when I raced i pushed myself as these guys did also, I liked to suffer in private. This race puts racer emotions out for public consumption.
Hey Pat, you gave me the link for Zag basketball. I tried it tonight to no success. Back up move was to the laundromat TV that I checked out earlier and learned that ESPN2 station was received. Check. I dashed in several mins into the game. Zags won. Great to see them live. Kelly Olynic is huge.
No rain is forecast for tonight and tomorrow. My hope is the trails @ Barrel Roll will be dry enough to ride.
I washed off the accreeted Arkansas mud over desert dust from my bike. Chilly work outside. The raw finish on the frame allows for a dirty looking frame, it doesn’t take on a shine.
