Being Sick Sucks.\u00a0\u00a0 At little over a week ago I started fighting off a cold\/crud and well I lost the fight.\u00a0 By\u00a0Tuesday I was good and jacked up with a cold\/flu.\u00a0\u00a0 This is such an awesome time of year to being ridng and being sidelined\u00a0just sucks.\u00a0\u00a0 I missed out on a really cool sounding 50+ mile epic ride this weekend around Otay Mountain that includes a good chunk of my ride out there a couple of weeks ago.\u00a0\u00a0 I woke up feeling “okay” this morning so I tried to get in a bit of riding at Lake Calvera which is ride I can do right from my house.\u00a0\u00a0 I quickly rediscovered that feeling “okay” on the couch does not equate to being okay to exercise.\u00a0\u00a0 I was a hacking, coughing, phlem hurling mess\u00a0as soon as I hit the first climb.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 I cut my normal loop out here short and retreated to home for more cough syrup, comfort food and couch time.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0\"Steve
\nI did take one picture on the ride today.\u00a0 The rider is Steve, a local rider who I met for the first time today.\u00a0 Ironically he was suffering from “The Plague” just like I was.\u00a0\u00a0I’m glad to know I’m not the only\u00a0one suffering.\u00a0 For all my fellow knobby tired brothers and sisters suffering from the crud, best wishes for a speedy recovery.<\/p>\n

I have some out-of-town plans for next weekend so I better finally kick this crud\u00a0this week.<\/p>\n
