The Care and Feeding of HE Ivan

Okay...this morning we got up after a good nights sleep and mel had a hard time keeping up with me on the bike...which is odd cause 1)I am still asthma-rific and 2)I was trying not to push to hard adn 3) I blew a tire 4.5 miles in. So, mel was nice enough to ride home the 2 miles, get the truck and pick me up cause I was lame and didn't pack a spare. We get to joe's and he's looking...not himself. We order, I exclaim that even with my suckage we were going 14.9mph on average and he comments that that was too fast. Hmmmm...well, we order and when his cornbeef hash arrives he layers it in salt and starts to feel better. Yeah...silly boy needs to be drinking his gatorade again. So, next week while I'm in Italy can you folks please make sure he's getting enough salt? Like make sure he eats chips and drinks good stuff? Thanks.

I'm pretty sure he's gonna get a bit lonely too but I'm sure you guys can keep him company.

Well, time to get laundry started and cleaning of the house going...its rather a mess right now after a week.

Mileage: 4.5 miles 14.9mph.

Lessons Learned: Always carry a spare and always carry your car keys
