May: Last Report

June minus 1 (-1) and counting. Some good news to report and possibly some GREAT news since our last gathering. A drop dead gorgeous Sunday morning on EVERY front.

The last informal training ride was completed earlier this morning with a good time. Tomorrow starts the formal training program leading up to the Ride in WF.

WAIT. DIDN’T YOU SAY THAT WAS SCRUBBED?

I did and it is however that is NOT a reason to quit and stop training.

I’M STARTING TO THINK YOU MAY HAVE CROSSED THE LINE AND BECOME AN IDIOT.

I think no, not so much.

Since the HH100 is ‘virtual’ whatever THAT involves, if a conflict arises between a training ride and planned event, the training now has the lower priority and shall be dropped. It’s quite simple but I am glad you axed because it shows exactly how shallow you are.

After the ride I spent some down time in the spa and the water was just perfect. Sun streaming thru the trees, the air still cool. It was strictly therapeutic.

EXPLAIN POR FAVOR.

Of course. Hot coffee in the spa in the morning is truly as good as it gets. The antibiotic treatment is about half-way thru and yes there is marked improvement with the chigger bite. A warning with this anti-b is ‘avoid prolonged direct sunlight exposure’ or words tothat effect.

Not sure what it would do but such warnings now in this age bracket are taken slightly more seriously than in the past.

I have a good number of things to do this day and this post up knocks a couple off the list.

Oh, the POSSIBLY GREAT news is I received an email for volunteers at the spectatorless Charles Schwab PGA tournament at Colonial in a few weeks. I learned somehow, somewhere, that it is the strongest field ever for the event which is very cool but no one can watch. Only on telly. A bit of irony there. I heard Rory Mc was playing.

What is cool is that the job will be slightly different and NOT carrying the sign so a change will do some good.

I am going to put some additional thought into supper, start a little fire outback and cook something on the hibachi after the sun gets a little lower.
