I think my Blog is kinda lame because I never have time to find pictures...or even take them... Oh well...the pleasure will be just to see my words and not my grill...not sure which is worse.....
I finally made brother take a day off and go for a longer ride with me. We did a double loop of Red mountain. It was his first real attempt on hills and some sketchy downhills. We also rode w/ DR who met us at 6am for the 2.5 hour tour. The first loop had my brother learning how to "find a gear" and not try to keep jumping out of the saddle to play catch-up. He made it up the hill and it was a really nice view looking over the valley. We kept a nice pace on the second loop and saw three huge Buck's run across the road no more the 10 yards in front of us. Kinda cool...well back to the "Bucks" on the Bike. The last hill I felt really good and figured it would not be bad if I left the group and waited up top. I can't wait for the weather to get cooler in the morning because I was bakin at the end of the ride.
My plan is to start to get out and run some as I am in training for a TRI in October. I have not ran in 10 years. I used t run 10K's almost every weekend as a kid. I am not a kid anymore....The TRI will be a 1 mile swim, 45 mile bike and 10K run. I think I can hit te swim and bike...the Run.......
I will keep you all posted on how that goes......

Swim, ride, and run - just a few too many things to do in one day. Good luck on the trip and prep for the tri.
Yeah, good luck Jens with the training. It's cool that you got Jason to go with you. If you want someone to fun with, you can ask Dan. He runs everynight with Heidi but I am sure he would like to run longer and faster with you.
Sorry...typing error, I don't mean fun with but run with!
