Off the Bike Rest Day....Maybe?

Well my legs are feeling like I might need an off the bike rest day, but we shall see what the afternoon brings.  Want to ride my Longish Chester-Essex loop down Dennison Rd into Ivoryton.  Tomorrow is the Ivoryton Farmers Market, and love the live music.  Might get a short ride in this afternoon, if I feel like it is warranted.

Went to the Gym this morning and did a arms circuit with 3 sets, then abs and back, finished with stretching.  I used my stretching belt to get a much deeper stretch today and it felt great.  Need to remember to get that out each time from here on out.

Lost another .5 lbs this AM. even though I thought I might gain after eating so much yesterday.  I know I should not push the weight loss but I want to be as light as possible before summer ends.  This keeps me riding maybe when I should be resting off the bike...

My sugar has been below 125 for 3 consecutive days, and that is great!  Hopefully if it keeps up this pace I will be below at or below 100 soon, which would mean off the drugs!  Hopefully.  It will happen if I stay the course with the diet and exercise, especially the diet!!!

Time to go clean the green machine!!!

Cleaned the green machine and found that the rear brake was not springing back off of the rims properly.  Took it to CC and the Boys, and they fixed it temporarily, but brought it back to them to have it properly fixed after my ride.

I call BS on myself,  Rest day my butt...Road the Airline trail in the heat for 14+ miles all the way to the end and the Airline Bike Shop.  Which is out of the way, in the back with very little signage.  Nice little place.  They carry the usual small bike shop fair...Giant.  They must give there stuff on loan to the shops...  Well anyway, nice ride, and my legs are done.  I will see what I feel like tomorrow, but I see a short easy ride from Essex to Ivoryton in my future...:)
