Finally, a great weekend for cycling

We finally broke the 20C mark this weekend, I've been waiting for quite some time for that! Got to ride for the first time with my Trans Rockies partner Niall. Did a nice ride out to Cochrane and back, just over 60km. Had a pretty decent pace, it was windy as hell going out. I'm confident that we're going to be a pretty good match.

I still have to work more on my endurance as he's done a whole bunch of these crazy races and it's just my first one. I was thinking about doing the Salty Dog, but I'm not sure I'm ready for a race that length yet, especially on a new bike. We'll see how I feel in the next week or so.

The Canadiens blew a chance today to take a stranglehold on their series losing in OT to Boston. They need to get Saku Koivu back on the ice as I see poor Plekanec getting hammered on out there. One day for them to rest and they'll get back at it. Hope the Flames play better in the next period and a half as they're behind 3-1 after 3 very quick goals in the first by the Sharks.
