A great event where we get to shut down to major highways, screw up city traffic and ride on the road wo fear of getting squished by cars. Me, K and Rick decided to give it a shot.  Now me and Rick had been training for a little bit beforehand, about ~3wks.  K, I don&#8217;t think so much tho he and the missus were gettin out and riding closer to the event.  Twas a good day for riding 50 kms. We all had signed up for the early 7:15 am start time but r was late coming to my house and by the time we got down there it was 7:45, so we missed our start time.  Then i decided to drop the bikes on their back tires as I was takin the bikes off the rack and that bounced the chains off the gears, geez what a dumbass I am! They also told me as they were taking a look at my bike that my bottom bracket was loose tho they didn&#8217;t have the tools to fix it there, so I figure I&#8217;ll take it to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.skiisandbiikes.com\" title=\"Skiis and Biikes\" target=\"_blank\">Skiis &amp; Biikes<\/a> after to get it looked at.  Although the forecast did call for rain, it only spat for a minute or two on the way back.  Everyone was glad they got out and did it but they were sure beat.  I caught them napping on the way back in the car =)<\/p>\n<p>After I get home I rush to sobeys and buy everything I need. Most importantly, I got the half-pounders.  I don&#8217;t like to waste food but i&#8217;m proud to say that everyone finished their burger, altho some only had the patty like a steak. Oh well, to each his\/her own.  It was a good thing I setup up my eating &#8216;tent&#8217; but unfortunately, it poured like a bitch and I had to bbq in the rain a little.  J also brought a cake over since it was s&#8217; bday coming up so we little a candle and did a little bday thing for him.  Too bad some ppl had to leave early and were left outta the bday celebrations.<\/p>\n<p>Pix for the whole day are here: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.vchan.ca\/menalto-gallery\/main.php?g2_itemId=1543\" title=\"2007 Ride for Heart &amp; bbq#1 pix\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/www.vchan.ca\/menalto-gallery\/main.php?g2_itemId=1543<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ride for Heart.
