IM Date - 12/16/08

Well another purchase is in the books.  I broke down and bought myself a trainer for at home.  Aside from the fact that it is a lovely -15 degrees with a -25 below zero windchill today and riding outside seems a long time away, I really can't keep using Jodee's.  And plus, mine came in a really cool green color!  (Well, cool if you like classic Mopar cars or Arctic Cat snowmobiles.) 

So last night we braved the sub-zero temps and went to visit our favorite bike shop:  Trailhead Cycle in Champlin.  We of course got a great deal and it is now set up at home, ready to go.

Another HUGE thank you goes out to dear-father (and Sue!) for yet another "contribution" for the cause.  And while giving  a check as a Christmas present may not be very much fun...it has certainly been put to use–even before Christmas.  Maybe I'll bring it up and put it under the tree come Christmas morning.  This will hopefully conclude the major purchases for the race..I hope.  More to come...
