My last few posts haven't had ride reports. Sorry about that. I've been super busy and I'll give you the short version of the story. A while back I went to Alamogordo to look at houses. I ended up putting in an offer on one of them, but was outbid by someone else. Well, time passed and I pretty much forgot about the whole thing, but I got a call saying that the other offer went through and my offer was now the highest. Did I want to keep my offer on the table? I did.
Well, my house here in NV wasn't quite ready to sell and I had been slacking a little since my offer was declined. All of the sudden I had a lot of work to do. That's what I've been doing recently. I've been working like crazy on the house and not doing much else. In some ways it has been fun. In other ways it has been super stressful. I've lost some fitness, but I'm still on pace to ride a century every week and I should hit my 12,000 mile goal for the year. I'm going to fail most of my other yearly goals, but as soon as this whole moving process is over, my life will be in a much better place and I will have a lot more time to ride and freedom to do whatever I want. More on that later.
Meanwhile, this was just a simple, flat ride that I squeezed in between all the house work.
