I've always heard drinking dehydrates you - so it's just a thought. :-) <BR/><BR/>I'm glad you had a great weekend though - and don't worry too much about the bike distance - push yourself a little harder each time and you'll get there!Kim H.https://www.blogger.com/profile/03611545652342361679noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7790808615132548384.post-370119808988413722009-03-23T23:00:00.000-05:002009-03-23T23:00:00.000-05:00Sounds like you had a great weekend.

Definitely nothing wrong with a maragrita every now and again!!! :-)<BR/><BR/>8 miles seems like quite a distance to me, you must feel somewhat comfortable to be able to get that far. Trust me, I wouldn;t even be able to get down my driveway at the moment! You're doing great!!!Tullyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17777827076302706767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7790808615132548384.post-17113501439883322242009-03-23T15:54:00.000-05:002009-03-23T15:54:00.000-05:00Sounds like a fabulous weekend!

I can't say I've ever watched the Aeros, but hockey is hockey!!!! <BR/><BR/>It also sounds like you've turned into one bad biker! You'll be riding 20 - 30 - even 40 miles before you know it!!! I can't wait to congratulate you! <BR/><BR/>I hope you're in for a fabulous week!Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13838653898200761823noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7790808615132548384.post-79757287182171041002009-03-23T12:58:00.000-05:002009-03-23T12:58:00.000-05:00One of the best ways to increase your distance is ...One of the best ways to increase your distance is to add 20% to the last distance you did. So, if you were able to do 10 miles, do 12 the next.<BR/><BR/>Getting comfortable on the bike takes some time. If in a month of routine riding you are not feeling more comfortable, then your bike might need more adjusting; just a tweak here and there can really make a difference.<BR/><BR/>That said, my back was pretty tired after yesterday's 40 mile ride. Between yesterday and Saturday, my core and back were tired from having to constantly support my frame.Donnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09531066471698015279noreply@blogger.com
