I went 22 miles today on my bike today, but most of it was pushing through snow and ice. I made it home, but I'm pooped!  The ice under the bridges was very slick, and I did fall (not hard) one time.

Cannondale won't shift in freezing weather!

I found out My Cannondale won't shift in cold weather, so I could not get into high gear.  It was slow going. But, when it warmed up it started shifting just fine. I got 24 miles in today. It was very chilly this morning

Replaced the front shifter on my mountain bike

   I needed to replace the shifter cable on my mountain bike, so I took apart the shifter to get the cable off.  Bad move, because now I can't get it back together.  So, I called the bike shop and they had one for $20.  I rode my bike 11 miles round trip to the bike shop to pick it up. I also bought a pair  of bike shorts and handle bar grips. Spent $85 dollars!  I fixed my bike after I got home, and now it is like new.

Oh I forgot to mention, I rode my mountain bike 41 miles last week. 10 miles was in the dark with a full moon. It was beautiful!  It was a little spooky though.  I went to church and then to small group. It was very cold, but it did not bother me too much.
