New Start

Since my last Blog entry my weight has stayed pretty stable(RE: FAT).
I have begun modifying my diet heavily, as my gout came back with a vengance, and I spent a great deal of time working with a Cane!
I commited to riding in the tour de cure on May 31st of this year. Today is May tht 6th. I have not been on my bike, nor to the gym to ride yet. Heck, the brakes are not finished on the bike yet!

So, I have around 4 weeks to get myself into shape to at least ride the shortest course of the tour, which is about 10 miles.

This is the third year that I have signed up for the tour. Each year I raise money for my team, and the last 2 years I have been unable to ride usually due to a gout flareup or injury. This year that really has to stop.
