crush it!

a nice weekend. friday night, robin's parents arrived and stayed through this morning. it was a very nice visit and calvin was 'all in.' showing them things, playing, etc. he loves his grandparents which is really fun to see.

saturday, robin and i did the 50 mile version of figure 8 the lakes. it was a tour to be sure - and we did get a little frustrated with course marking/people during the first 15 miles but it ended up being a great day in the saddle with my bride. i would rate the pace from leisurely (in the first 15-20 miles) to moderate and we ended up with 53 miles in around 3:30. back home to clean up and get a great dinner made (gnocchi with fresh vegetables and sausage and yummy carrot cake to finish). while making dinner, my dad (with becca, brooks and becca's roomate) stopped buy for a really quick visit. he had a full house momentarily! sunday was ali's baptism and then lunch afterward in edgerton. again, a good visit - it is fun to see calvin playing with other kids. back home i was able to do a little work on the motobecane 'un-singlespeed' project before we cranked up the hoenisch pizza oven for homemade pizza. it turned out bomber and i think we have a winner for the post-nationals party this year! a very good weekend to be sure.
