I imagine words will yet again fail me. This bike ride that is so much more will be over tomorrow. &#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"http:\/\/coloradocommunitynewspapers.com\/articles\/2009\/06\/09\/highlands_ranch_herald\/sports\/11_spts_24hours_erock_hr.txt\" href=\"http:\/\/coloradocommunitynewspapers.com\/articles\/2009\/06\/09\/highlands_ranch_herald\/sports\/11_spts_24hours_erock_hr.txt\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Race keeps couples together&#8230;or not<\/strong><\/a><br \/>\nby Highlands Ranch Herald &#8211; Highlands Ranch,CO,USA<br \/>\nBeing in the military and stationed in El Paso, Texas, Pyrek and Marino use cycling events as something to do together to stay close when he is back home. &#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"http:\/\/331miles.blogspot.com\/2009\/06\/tagged.html\" href=\"http:\/\/331miles.blogspot.com\/2009\/06\/tagged.html\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>331 Miles: Tagged<\/strong><\/a><br \/>\nfrom Google Alerts &#8211; Texas cycling by 331 Miles<br \/>\nI&#8217;ve been tagged.

Surprisingly, though, I ran about 8 min pace on rolling hills in this gross heat and was pretty happy with how good I felt. It was a short run &#8211; just 2 miles &#8211; but that doesn&#8217;t make me any less &#8230; Later in the day, I visited a friend of mine to borrow her bike. The bike fits well. It does need a serious tune-up (the break on the back wheel doesn&#8217;t work at all), and I&#8217;m thinking of changing the mountain bike tires to road slicks &#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Perry breaks collarbone in biking accident Accident delays trip to Galveston, Corpus Christi, South Padre By R.G.
