That was the "story of my life" for almost the entire summer last year and is starting out that way this year as well. Seemed everytime it was nice out, I had things that had to be done. Then when I had the time to ride, the weather wouldn't cooperate. This past Saturday it was 93 degrees with 0% chance of rain and a buddy of mine asked me to go to a "bike classic" event a couple hours away. So, it would have been a good long ride there and back and some cool stuff to see and do when we got there. Well, I'm still nursing a bad leg from a pulled muscle that turned into a swollen foot caused by wrapping the leg too tight, getting wasted at a party, and sleeping all night on it. Everyday since has been cool or rain or both with thunderstorms thrown in. Weekend coming up was looking iffy but not so bad as of now - we shall see.
