I was hoping the weather was turning warmer but that was not enough to make it happen. So I rolled out the windtrainer to no where and went there. I got a late start due to my college playing basketball on ESPN2. I watched the finish to the first half. The University of Cincinnati Bearcats hit a 3 pointer at the buzzer to tie Villanova 31 to 31. Go Bearcats!!
Huffman Leos lend a hand at Humble Lions Club Bike Ride
from www.ourtribune.com
The Huffman Leo Club assisted the Humble Lions Club with their eighth annual Humble Bike Ride on Feb. 20. The Leo club was requested to man the children’s bike stop. They decorated the rest stop with a luau theme with tents wrapped in a beach scenery. The group served fresh fruit and individual bags of cookies and Goldfish crackers. The Leos provided water and Gatorade for riders. The kids’ ride is a 4-mile bike ride that started and ended at the Humble Civic Center. Proceeds benefit children with disabilities. …

Cycling, Mountain Dad: Finally a long-ish ride!
by …it’s me!…
Got in 64 miles in 3.5 hours Saturday. Cloudy but not too cold. Started by warming up before the hour of power. Seemed like they went slower than hair-on-fire up to Arrowhead Golf course. The wind was pretty fierce that morning and we were all huddled up so that the poor soul in front of you was going to get the full effect of the wind whereas you were nice and tucked in. Being that bunched up of course made the hive squirrely because when somebody would stand up to get more watts in the climb the dude behind him would have to swerve or even worse hit the breaks (I swear people in here in Co are strong but squirrely, at least in TX…

The following is a guest post by Chip Seal of http://chipsea.blogspot.com/. He has had several run in’s with the Ennis Police Department and here is his personal take on this situation:
I had learned to ride a bicycle in California, and rode it for thousands and thousands of miles in that state. So when I took up cycling again in Texas in 2006, I wanted to be sure I understood Texas bicycle specific law and how to safely navigate on a streetscape that had few wide lanes like had experienced in California. …
Pedal Pushers: Burma Loop
by Roy and Christine
The forecast was outstanding considering it is still February. It was to be a high of 63 and the wind 6-8 miles per hour. No excuses, so a social ride was called and I am glad we did it. Notwithstanding the social aspect of a group ride, Christine and I have a planned 100K ride at Bastrop next weekend. Whereas we have been having the opportunity to get in some rides over the winter months, the Burma Loop of 39 miles was to be our longest ride…
