Skipped workout over weekend and went for 25 mile bike ride instead. It was nice to get the bike out again. I always forget how much I enjoy the road bike. Just hard to make it work with my current schedule. Cycling is all about the miles. If you can't put them in, you can't keep up with the pack....
