The Weatherman

Ok…so I’ve never been much of a biker. I definitely prefer running and hiking. But after hiking a few times up at El Corte Madera, I figure it’s time to try it out on a mountain bike. Plus, my joints would probably last longer

I picked up my mountain bike tonight a Gary Fisher Tassajara. What a bike! I took it for an inaugural spin for about 30 minutes. And yes, I was sore. Well, it’s been about 10 years since I’ve ridden a bike. Running and biking do not work the same muscles. Plus there is the butt soreness.

Anyway, I’m excited to get out there this weekend, but I’ll have to take it easy. For one, I’m a crappy mountain bike rider. Two, I need to build up the biking muscles. I’ll probably do some relatively easy street riding and some easy trail riding.

More to come…and hopefully some photos.
