It's been a great week. Got a lot of work done - not that I live for work but the sense of satisfaction I get from it gives me a warm little glow. It's a pleasure that's earned, not given. Then there was that ridiculous hill ride on Tuesday. My legs are still shattered from that and Sean punked me on our commute/workout. That said, I didn't go easy today despite the sore legs - .92 intensity this morning going in, and .91 coming out. Two hours at over .9 intensity? I'd say that's a good workout. Coming home, it was ridiculous though. I was sprinting up the short, stiff kickers, going literally all out at 1100 watts in places, and my heartrate wouldn't climb over 150 or so, a high zone 3 hr. Sounds to me like ol' Jimbo is tuckered out, and in need of a rest. So a rest it will be tomorrow, with a short ride, maybe out for coffee in the AM.
Meanwhile... Have some music. Our theme for this week is "Hills." I'll try to stick with it.
I like Peter Gabriel. All those boys who played in Genesis were super talented. You don't have to love each one's musical style, you just have to respect it. They brought the heat.
Then there's Cypress Hill. I think it's a safe bet that these boys smoked *a lot* of dope. Anybody want to disagree with me and put a $20 on it?
That somehow led to this mashup:
Nice, huh? Took a twisted mind to think of that combination. As twisted as the dude that thought of this one:
Oh hell. I've totally lost the narrative thread here. Might as well honor the town where we started that hell ride, Frederick, by playing something from Frederick's Finest Hard Rock Band, Clutch. Nice cameos here by some of the "Jackass" crew.
Have a nice weekend everybody. Ride hard, have fun.
