Three girls' adventures in exercise...a place for motivation, praise and bragging...and maybe a little whining.

Have fun storming the castle!!

A Bike Ride?!?!

Yep, that's right. I took Carlo on a bike ride today! We went for about an 8 mile ride (round-trip) that gained about 1,000 feet. Lots of climbing, especially for a girl who's not really a biker! But it was really nice. Carlo seemed like he really had a great time. He was able to basically unload and run all out for a lot of the way - especially on the way back down!! I climbed for about an hour, and made the trip back down the road in about 25 mins! And that was with lots of braking so Carlo could stay caught up. Quite a ride! So, now my butt is VERY sore, but I'm really stoked on the ride! I'm thinking I'm going to try to find some more essentially empty trails and roads for Carlo and I to go play on in the future! I may have to get some bike shorts in order to keep this up, though!!!! Wowie Zowie Owie!!!

*I'll post pictures of several of my recent adventures soon! - As promised, pictures finally up!
