Things have been crazy around here for a week (or so) now. I think next week things will start to come to some sort of new normalcy. I am heading out tonight on a red eye to OKC to see my dad. I'm flying solo....which means the Hubs and LB will be left with only Lazy dog to keep them in line. Oh boy...I am sure they will have a great time. On the weekend agenda: Loose the training wheels! I'm actually kind of glad I wont be here for that. It sounds like a great dad/son activity. I just hope I don't come home to one (or two boys) with broken bones.
This past week the Hubs got a new mountain bike! We enjoyed a fun ride around T-Town this morning. I was on my road bike and he was jumping curbs and popping wheelies like he was 12 year old on his mountain bike! We had a great time!
Here we are down on Ruston waterfront:
I look like a biker (minus the running shoes and cages instead of clip ins, I'm not too fond of the idea of falling over at a red light, thanks though. But I did almost die TWICE when my laces got tangled in my gears. Rock. Hard place.)....I am seriously lacking in my biking skilzs! BUT with my tri only weeks away I have to get my rear in gear and BE READY!
We even rode UP the Spawn of Satan! Let me tell you, I would much rather RUN up that stupid hill that ride my bike! Man, I was toasted at the top. At one point I was catching my breath and the walking mail man (poor guy got that route, he must be low on the totum pole) siad, "Be careful!" I must have looked wobbly...he then pointed out that Hubs was "Showing off." Just I looked up the hill to see him stunting his way up...
We had a great morning riding around like kids skipping school but now I am off to spend the last couple of hours with the fam before my flight!
Have a great weekend everyone!
sounds like a great day full of fun. Awesome way to start the weekend.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure it was fun riding the bikes with your husband. Have a good weekend!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful area to exercise in!
ReplyDeleteLooks like fun! I thought that I was the only one to get my laces caught in my gears! AND, I am scared of my clips!
ReplyDeleteENJOY - looks like you are having a great time with hubby. Hub's and LB will have a great one on one time this weekend. Blessings and prayers for your Dad.
ReplyDeleteWhat a nice couple! Blessings on you trip.
ReplyDeleteIf you can ride with the cages, you can ride with the clips. I *finally* made the transition to clips after almost two years of cages - because I'm such a scaredy cat - and realized it's no big deal. LOL.
ReplyDeleteWhat a nice ride with your hubs, the water looks gorgeous!
That sounds like so much fun! The pics look like the weather was nice.
ReplyDeleteI have zero bike skills. LOL!! You two look cute.
ReplyDeleteI am so jealous of the long sleeves y'all are wearing. What I would give right now to not have this heat here!
ReplyDeleteHave a safe trip! Love the pics of you and the hubster. :) Too fun!
ReplyDeleteI, too, have gotten my laces caught up in my pedals = yikes! Not fun, and one of the reasons why I'm looking into proper bike shoes, but am scared about that too. The things we do to ourselves, hey :)
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your trip and the time you spent with your dad. I hope he is feeling better!
