weekend riding and family

ella has a new bicycle, turns 4 tomorrow and she's up and at 'em. jakob is happy to be riding tandem with dad on the trail-a-bike, it's good to be 7. we loaded up both and my wife and i met our friends at lake harriet for a picnic. my buddy had a large trailer and brought a grill, cooler, tons of food.
i might race or i might take some long road rides. MTB racing seems most attractive at the moment. we'll see how i feel after taking a few hot laps at theo wirth trails. it's gonna be a great summer.

update of sorts

• bridgestone xo2 : riser bars, no more road levers and mustache bars, geared, need some new tires ,think i found a pair 1.75 with some tread
• meister: 42 x17 ss now that the bridgestone is up i can pull the cx tires, and ride fast
• schwinn le tour: as close as it's ever been, crank and shifters close

been riding a whole lot more since the van bit the dust 3 weeks ago. $1500 in repairs on a 15 year old van means it's time to donate that money pit. so the wife and i are car free. april was cold may was a little bit too, riding is great and i'm doing it as often as i can. Not thinking about racin' until fall. i'd rather ride than blog about it
