My poor NY Jets pulled out a win today. Kinda bitter sweet though since the win puts us out of the Reggie Bush running (2006 NFL draft). Curtis martin (The Best Player the Jets have ever had) missed the game today and probably will miss the rest of the season. That is nothing new this year since we have 11 starters on the IR.

I have decided to change the title of the blog. The reason why you ask? As we all know by know my wife Michelle is pregnant with our first child. That means that she eats a little something every few hours. Translation I eat evey two hours. I am up almost 10 lbs since the summer.

Michelles mom and Loran came down today for the annual Christmas cookie bake off. So if you want some of these cookies, come and get em.

Here is a little something to get everyones opinion. Do you think presents should be opened the night b-4 Chrismas or only the day off. That is the on going fued going on around here. Lets hear your opinions in the comments section.

P.S. Where is My brother. he hasn't said anything in a while.

Not much new around here. Although I have figured out a way to eat fast food And still be somewhat healthy. Wendys is the best since they have Baked potatoes, chili and Iced tea thats brewed not from fountain. Tonight is the night ride and it should be chilly, around 40' or so. Tommorow is my day off and I will be doing a nice long fun ride since the high should be around 65' or so.

I went for a ride this morning and I thought I was crazy for riding in 35' weather, But then I read Jeffs Blog. I rode for about 1 1/2 hours at a moderate pace and then Hit up the coffee pot.

I have all kinds of stuff to do today. With that in mind, see yaa

Road ride complete. Thats right the bike I put away after the tour was pulled out of hybernation, dusted off and actually saw the open road. About two hours at a real easy pace

Not much new happening around here. Michelle is a little under the weather, but she is fine. Zoe "thedog" is on crack today. She is doing laps around the house and Belle doesnt know what to think. All is fine in the desert and the tempertures are really nice right know.

I was looking at the housing costs in California "just for fun" and they are really out there. the same house we had in meadowbrook which we sold for $129,000, would sell for like $450,000. Thats out of hand. How can anyone afford to live there. I guess you would make more but you would have a $3500 morgage payment. OUCH!!!

The ride this am did not go as planned. For the first time in a long time I had all kinds of mechanical problems.The chain was skipping over the rear cog. That means everytime I put pressure on the pedals I had problems. The climbs were rough but otherwise I was able to do the ride OK. Hit the Starbucks on the way home and all was good.

I replaced the chain and rear gear and will give it a try tommorow. I need a new digital camera for posting pictures on the blog of general stuff as well as future pics of the brat. Hint Hint.

The weather is absolutly awesome right now. Tommorow I will be raging out on our local 24 hour course on the single speed (cant wait). Thanksgiving was good and like everyone else I ate way to much. I could use the ride to get all that turkey off.

Happy Thanksgiving!!

Turkeys in the oven.

The tour went really well. We were able to get Christina in under 5 hours which gives her platinum for men as well as women. Not to bad for a barley 17 year old. 404th out of almost 4000 people not too bad.

We are having Thankgiving here and I will do the usual brine turkey thing I do. The gravy and rolls will also be on me but that is it. Everyone else will bring a dish to make it complete.

Alright it is here! The tour is in 11 and a half hours. After this weekend we will have a week or sow of down time to get ready for Christmas. Then the real busy time begins.

Thanksgiving will be at our house, as usual. So be here early to get a spot at the adult table.

Todays plans:

We went to the doctors office this am and everything is good and on scheduale.
Put the finishing touches on Nasal Drip Harris' room.
Put the trash out.
Get the road machine ready for the tour.
Go for a night ride tonight and ride the singlespeed 29er.
Time to get cracken. See yaa!!

Well it is 5 days away from the El Tour De Tucson and we are swamped. A customer told me the tour is full and entry is closed. That means we have over 7000 people in town for the event. As the days go by we will be getting busier.

New E-mail address. dkharris111@yahoo.com . So if you e-mailed me in the last week or so I proberly did not get it. Nothing new here otherwise. Went for a ride today on a demo bike. Pretty cool ride review to come after a few more rides.

Ahh bunch of crap in my head. Cant breath cant think. Sick of being sick allready. Missed the race this weekend. I figured that would put me in the ER, so I skipped it. I have taken 6 multivitamins in 48 hours and drank a bunch of fluids.

Michelle walked last night for 20 minutes on the trendmill. Tonight she will walk the mall and get it in that way. Good for her! The race is tommorow and I think I am coming down with something (uhhhgg). I took a handfill of vitamins and drank a ton of juice. So basicly a am urinating floresent yellow. Hopefully I will be good to go tommorow.

Everyone including the doc says that Michelle should be exercising everyday for at least 20 minutes so the delivery will be easier. So that means I will be going for walks now as well as riding my bike. I am going to get super skinny yo! I better start eating more.

No other new news to report everything is going well and the weather is nice highs in the mid 80s with some wind but not bad. Tomorrow will be a long ride and tonight I am of for some hill sprints with Cory. The race this weekend is a low priority and I would not do it except I need some motivation to get back into a training mode. Nothing does that like getting your tail whipped at a race.

1427 hits on the old blog. Kinda cool I guess. It would be good to know who is looking at it. I wonder if there is a program for that. Saturday is the first mountain bike race of the season and as usual I am not ready. It will be fun anyway.

Things are going well with Nazal Drip harris. We are right on task. Michelle said he is moving around alot lately.
