Thoughts in bed through Xmas

Alternately at least, we both got severe colds and stayed much time during Xmas in bed.
Finally we recovered with no pain and no uncomfortable feeling.

I never imagined before that my body would have such a bad time to adjust and fight against extreme temperature changes. 


Because of raining, busy shopping, and fatigue, then nasty cold symptoms, I couldn't ride so much as before in December.  But it's a nice experience with cold weather, so I will try cycling a little better next year.

It's been a great cycling year for us.  It awoke me to all kinds of truth of life.  Definitely  our life got more interesting because of bicycling.  We got two model bicycle ornaments as a gift even?!!

We want to keep riding next year, too!

Thanks to the many people who have been visiting my blog whom I know and whom I don't know yet. Hope I will know new bicycle riders next year.

Put on layers and go

Great rain stopped, now let's bike!  
It was chilly this morning.  Everything was fun.  But we felt it was enough after just 30 minutes ride?!!

We ate only a small bowl of oatmeal with some raisins for breakfast.  Maybe that's not enough??  I can't eat as much in the morning now as in Summer time.

I got stressed out a little bit lately, maybe because of that?  I'm not sure.

Anyway we still can ride for fun, that's great.
Nowadays I could ride with any clothes, that made me surprised the other day.

What a great idea to have a bicycle-sharing system!

Since I watched the DVD "Copenhagen" I've been dreaming of going to a city which has a bike sharing system.

List of bicycle-sharing systems

I was surprised to know that quite a few cities of America had it, and some more cities are going to have it.

I want to know more about how they decided to have it.  How it is working.

Some day I would like to try it.  Without carrying my own bicycle, I just want to use it for a while, it sounds marvelous.

Oh, San Francisco!  Found an interesting site!! 

Sharing bike has to be docked within 30 min., because that's a sharing bike, so you can't hold it continuously for hours and hours.  In that case you'd be better to rent a bike at rental bike shop like this.

The weather changed to Winter truely now.

We've kept riding in our neighborhood.  But we didn't take any bike trip in November after all.  By our age the cold weather seemed to make us stiffer than ever.

We forgot having exercise often and that was definitely bad for us.

But we still can enjoy riding together, and that is fortunate we should think. 

Mr. Wh forgot to check a dough before leaving for ride today, so the dough was over-raised when we got back home.  But the pizza came out very tasty, even though that is just some cheese and hot dogs pizza.

I shredded cheese, sliced hot dogs, and spread them out.  He made the pizza perfect for us.
