Cardio felt like dirt. It was hard to maintain even 70 lousy rpm on this stupid machine and it bummed me out.

Comments: God riding this bike with Shelley is FUN!

We just explored all the trails at south SeaTac for maybe a couple of hours and had a blast doing it. Nothing is too technical or steep and most of the corners are no problem either.

We cased the bike once and had to dab one other time but for the most part we are doing better.

I noticed we are getting very close to bottoming out our suspension in the front and rear so I'll need to remember to stiffen it up a tad. It sure feel plush though. :)

Course: dirt roads and trails through the Black Forest in Freiburg Germany

Comments: It has become kind of a joke lately. Every hike that Shelley and I go on I point out all the nettles and warn her not to touch them.

This morning I'm running along this narrow dirt trail (much slower than yesterday - man was I sore…) with my iPod on 11 and my mind wandering who knows where when I hit a rock or root with my foot and totally summersault off the trail, down the embankment and into some sticker bushes and nettle bushes. Nice.

I'm sitting there surrounded by nettles wondering how the hell I'm going to stand up without getting completely covered in stings. If I put my hands down to boost myself up my arms will get ravaged and if I try some sort of acrobatic move with no arms or hands then I risk trashing my legs even worse or maybe even falling further down the slope. I opted for the acrobatic move. Luckily I made it up.

During my tumble off the trail I scraped my left shoulder, knee and the heel or my right hand. Oh well. I decided to continue but it did slow down my pace some.

After a bit I felt really empty as in no energy so I decided to turn around and head back.

So, not the best workout but these trails are VERY pretty and there is nothing I like more than riding or running down a road or trail I have never been on.
Equipment:  
Clothing: shorts, shirt, running is really simple compared to riding…
