Two runs and two rides

Ride #1: 2/8/2012 I took my mountain bike (it was repainted when I bought it so I have no idea what it is) up to Daken Mountain near my house. It's a 16km uphill ride to the turnaround point I chose. Once I was out of the city and into the mountains, I was overwhelmed with anxiety to get up there. My heart rate was going and my legs were burning but I couldn't stop. It was perfect riding weather. My total was around 32 km's.

This is where I turned around. 

The cherry blossoms are blooming now, which makes for a wonderful ride up the mountain.

Runs 1 and 2: 2/10/2012 - 3 miles in 23:58 and 2.61 miles in 21:19. I had to go to school to check some things with administration so decided to run there. Afterwards, I ran to the park to pick up the bike I might want to buy.  It's beautiful! It's a Kuota Kharma all-carbon frame with some other additions. It seriously weighs nothing and I look forward to some long rides.

Ride #2: 2/11/2012 I had a late Friday night and was not planning on riding to Zhanghua as I went to bed. When I woke up I felt great and energized, so I decided to take the Kharma out for a ride. The ride there is about 30km. It took an hour and ten minutes and I only got lost twice! I spent 6 hours in Zhanghua and then rode the 30km's back home. Just over 60km in total for the day. I really hate riding in the city. It took me 30 minutes just to get off Wenxin Road. I'm assuming that once I buy some bike shorts I won't be as saddle sore as I was on Saturday and Sunday. The bike is smooth and can really haul. I was passing scooters on the way back much to their delight.

I need to clean her up a little bit, but here she is.

Let me know what you think.
