Paragon is READY!
215 pounds....
I'm working on the weight. I let it go WAY too far this year and now I'm paying for it. I have started my 2 hour spin classes, so that will help some. And today I got on the trainer for 45 minutes to start shocking the body even more. Now I will have to work on what I'm eating and when.
Collin down at Cyclesmith dropped me an email yesterday early afternoon stating:
Hey whats up. I just wanted to let you know that I grabbed $3000 and put it under your account here at the shop I am starting to get the Paragon decked out and measured. The date on the frames is the 25th now. I missed out on 6 of the Fargos that they got in. They were there for 5 minutes and I missed them by seconds. As far as the wife's bike goes I think I'm going to hold for another week and let it get a little nicer out. So far you have $3205 in the shop. Let me know when you want to get the Paragon ready.
WOW and BUMMER all rolled into one. The Paragon is getting worked on and damn, the Fargo is still just out of reach.
Then later he sent me this:
Hey I got the Paragon all done. It looks awesome. You will like it. Let me know when you can stop in and check it out and finish it up.
DONE! That guy is awesome. If he were a chick I'd kiss him. Hell, I might just kiss him anyway. =)
So now, here I sit in the middle of a huge snow storm. Trying to decide if I should brave the weather to pick up the new bike. hhhmm.....

Way Cool
All my stuff has been sold on Ebay and things went really well. The new Fargo will be bought as soon as frames are available. The new Paragon is at the shop waiting for me to buy it. The new rims for it are there also.
The weather was warm enough today to get out on the Buell. That was nice.
Went to IMS yesterday, that was way cool.

Finally
Yup, I finally got back on a bike today. I was on the trainer for about 30 minutes. I need to rebreak in my butt, so I only rode a short time. Legs were super heavy for the first 10 minutes, but much better after that. In fact, much better the rest of the day.
Tomorrow is Advanced Accident Scene Management class in Fond du Lac. I haven't decided yet if I'm getting up early to ride some before I leave.

Catching Up
213 pounds....
Man, I didn't think it was THAT much. Food is evil. =)
I missed signing up for the Horribly Hilly Hundreds by about 10 minutes. I was late coming home last Thursday and didn't get logged on to register until about 20 minutes in to the process. Well, I was too late by then. 1000 spots filled up in under 20 minutes. Whoa! They do have 300 spots that will be done in a lottery. I have signed up for that. Wish me luck.
I have signed up again this year for 6 weeks of 2 hour spin classes with Sheryl. This is gonna hurt. Hopefully I can get some bike time between now and then. The first class is February 1st.
The Lab move at work has been postponed until the first week of February. Seems the new area wasn't quite ready for us.
Tucson here I come. I'll be there the second week of February for training. Should be nice and warm, hopefully.

Frakin' Thursday
Man, some higher ups at work just don't really know how to plan things. Everybody is supposed to be able to pull resources and funds out of thin air. When will they ever learn?
Was busy early today by snow blowing the drive at 4:30am.
Work was work. Way too much happening for the amount of time and effort that I have for it.
I really need to get on a bike and ride some. Sheryl is back at doing her 2 hour spin classes starting up in February. Woohoo. I always love those classes. They will be at the YMCA in Waukesha again this year.
Dropped off more stuff at the bike shop for the swap meet. While there I realized I left a few items in the basement. They are now sitting out so that I can drop them off tomorrow after work.
Caught up on a couple of more episodes of LOST. We hopefully will be kinda caught up by the time they start showing them again.

Wednesday Schmednesday
My Gawd, how many days in a row has he posted asked the masses? I guess I feel the need to blog. =)
The pressure cooker called work is turning it up a notch. Sometimes it feels like I'm the only one planning for the lab move. Hopefully I'm not.
Snow has visited us again. I'll be up early tomorrow to work the new snow blower that I bought earlier this year. A snow blower you ask, yup, I'm trying to optimize my time and that was one way of doing it.
Barb made it back from up north and both of the girls lived to tell about it.
I need to drop off more things for this weekend's bike swap meet at Cyclesmith. Hopefully I'll make a few dollars to put towards the new bikes for 2009.
