Busy day because I was out in Waukesha at the new International Autos location checking out a couple of the cars I will be advertising on the radio show. I'm doing a...

...and that was just from walking the dog this morning. The stretch of either cold or wet weather continues. 43 degrees with that cold wind blowing...and clouds today as...
The nice part about not actually TRAINING for anything on a bike this year is that if I go through these spells of poor weather without riding, it's not the end of the...
Blame me if it snows yet this spring, because today I emptied the gas from my snowblower and tucked it away. At the same time I put together the lawn mower handle,...
Friday's wonderful weather gave way to rain...lots of it. The sponge that is our lot can not hold any more rain, and for the last two nights it has been tough to sleep...
No, I didn't crash. I didn't even ride. I worked. And I mean I really worked. Friday's sunny, windy and warm conditions saw me on my feet from 9:00 in the morning until...
Thursday morning: Dark clouds, cold wind, 45 degrees and drizzle. A ride was not in the cards. And as excited as I was earlier about a long ride in the...
...because as luck would have it, I must have accidentally pressed BOTH buttons on my hoods during one of the climbs today on my ride and zeroed out my Flight Deck. When...
Well, this morning it was snowing and all of 32 degrees. No riding today. This is depressing. You get a taste of spring and then it is taken away from you. Oh well....
Back to the reality of Wisconsin in April. No ride Monday, and it looks like the same conditions for Tuesday. Seems Wednesday will be the next opportunity for a ride....
No riding today, as the weather here has taken a turn for the worse. I need a couple of days of rest anyway. Looking ahead, on Saturday the 25th there is a Wisport...
Nice long Saturday ride in warm but changing weather, complete with two different chase stories from my 46 miles on the Madone today. Early in the ride it was clear to...
Saturday morning and it's 6:20. I hear our dog throwing up in the living room. She has had a little cough for a couple of days, and I think she got into more grass...
More about that title in a bit....but first... WHAT A FREAKIN' RIDE! 35 rock-solid miles, as I bond with my new Madone 5.2. And today, it was a beautiful relationship...
Back on the road today for a simple, basic 26-mile Loomis Loop ride to test out the new Bontraeger saddle (not the one in the picture) today, and to get a feel for the bike...
I did get a short ride on the Klein in today...previous post...but this is just about my appointment at Rainbow Jersey. We swapped out the saddle that slipped on the...
Another raw spring day today. I wasn't going to even ride, but felt guilty about not at least getting a little exercise. It was one of those days where, had the sun been...
Wow. Talk about a great race! Paris-Roubaix did NOT let me down this year. After watching my recording of the coverage from Sunday, I can't wait to watch it a second...
Wanting to get that bad taste in my mouth from Saturday's ride gone as fast as possible, I managed to squeeze in an Easter Sunday ride today. I took out the Klein and...
Okay, so in the light of the next day after the ride from HELL Saturday (see previous post) I woke from my chocolate-infused sleep Easter morning to go check on my new...
Okay, so you want to know what the worst was now, right? State Time Trial Championships in Milton a few years ago, my one and ONLY attempt at an offical TT event....
Finally, the day has arrived. It's all about the bike today, more specifically, my new Madone 5.2 First of all, a thanks to reader John Gaynor who gave me some notes...
