Back on the Bike

Well my wife is riding once again. Today we went on an eight mile ride. Nothing major but a good ride to see how she felt riding that far with her new fitting and also to see how the physical therapy is going for her.

Today wasn't her strongest ride, but it's the first time since her accident where you could tell she was riding comfortably and relaxed. In fact when were where returning she was very chipper and even did a small sprint (a rarity in and of itself).

With this amount of progress she'll be ready for the Cycle for Independence that's coming up next month.

I can't wait to watch her progress continue.

Wobble-Naught Bike Fitting

My wife and I recently had our bikes fitted using Wobble Naught over at George's Cycles at their front street store.

What an amazing difference it has made! I am not a professional cyclist by any means and I went into this for the most part out of curiosity. My bike (a Specialized Roubaix Comp)was already "fit" based on things I'd read in books and online so I figured I had it dialed in close to where it should be and only small minor tweaks would be needed. Was I ever wrong. My saddle height increased close to an inch, by stem was lowered and both cleats were adjusted as well. It has made a huge difference. I didn't realize how big of a difference this would make both in my comfort and even my performance. I ride faster and more comfortable than I ever have before.

I can't recommend Wobble-Naught enough, and when I buy my next bike I'll have this done from the very beginning.

Wii Are Back... Again

Well our Nintendo Wii has returned once again from repairs. So far everything this running smoothly but I haven't had much time to use it yet. Hopefully this coming weekend I'll get some Zelda time in. On thing that's interesting is since this is the third time the console has been shipped it's got light scratches on it. Nothing major and you can't see them in the TV stand but it is disappointing. Hopefully this is the end of my console troubles.
