Spring is finally here. It's not going to last, but for now we have sunshine and warm weather and I'm getting the itch to get out on my bike.

This will have to wait a bit. First, since I'm still having issues walking, biking is contraindicated for another couple of weeks. But that's okay, since I need to bring my bike into the shop for its spring tune-up anyway. And hopefully by the time that my bike and I are ready the town will have swept the sand and accumulated winter crap off the streets, making them safe for cyclists.

I can't ride yet, but the helpful catalogs that arrived in the mail reminded me that I need to get some gear. I have a ten year-old pair of bike shorts that need to be replaced, and while I was shopping I couldn't resist ordering a new bike shirt for training.

19 weeks to get into shape for the Canadian Rockies trip.

Oh, I meant to add that the Southern Tier Bicycle Club (http://www.southerntierbicycleclub.org/pages/14/index.htm) does organized rides. I've been too disorganized to join on of their organized rides, but I have taken advantage of their database of rides http://home.stny.rr.com/jaysweb/tuesbike/tuesbike.html (http://home.stny.rr.com/jaysweb/tuesbike/tuesbike.html).
