It felt good to be back in the saddle.

Unfortunately, the bad news is that I've discovered that riding isn't giving me the kind of endurance work out the ski machine does; that's important because, well, endurance is important to man, right?

I've spent 6 days a week of the last 10 weeks on the !@#$!@# ski machine of evil and I've seen tremendous improvement.

Last night I was actually able to get through an entire hour with out having to beg forgiveness and step out the ring! I actually got compliments about how much more aggressive I am!
