IKE

Well as we prepare for Ike who is just hours away, my dependable employer is bound and determined to get a full day out of us, and the office is the only part working, my child is stranded in Alexandria and my mother will not give hime up until after the storm." my baby is not going through another hurricane" , you would think we were in new orleans. oh well.

And it finally happened and Ronnie said it would...I dropped the bike... not hurt except for my pride and a couple of bruises....lesson learned....never ride when you know you are tired and most important ,one must have a little speed when turning or you will fall over.....and of course the cute passerby that had to help me lift up the 600 pound gorilla and then the call to the husband that said "hey, i am ok BUT, i dropped the bike and antifreeze is coming out of the bike. can you come check it out?" He was there in about 5 seconds. So to date and only 45 miles of total riding later we have spent right at 100 dollars on things that i have "broke" , lost the brake handle on the drop. oops.
