What is your PLAN for the Winter months?

Posted by Sheila on December 4, 2011

So far this fall I think we have been lucky to have so many days we have been able to ride! BUT…you know it is coming…days…then weeks…then months pass and you have not been outside on your bike! BLAH!

Do you have a plan to keep your legs? Are you going to take a class at the “Y”? How about a trainer in the house? Maybe a spin at the Bike Shop on Tuesday and Thursday nights after the holiday?

If you are like me…you just know you have to do something! Sitting on a trainer is tough for me…in 5 minutes I am ready to jump off and say okay that was NOT fun!

I think I am going to start Yoga this month…Mondays and Wednesdays…that is a start! I know my husband will not be thrilled to hear this because he has agreed to do whatever type of workout I choose with me! hehehe!

I am also thinking I would like to start running again…my knees have no say in this! ;)   Have you ever heard of the Couch to 5K? Maybe I will start that in January and I will be ready to do a 5K by St. Paddy’s Day!!! What do you think? Want to join me?

So all in all I need to keep moving! I am praying for a short winter so we can get back on our bikes!!

If you have any ideas about how to keep in shape over the winter let me know! If anyone wants to partner with me to make the time more enjoyable leave me a message here and I will get in touch!

Hike, Bike, or Just Have A Fun Weekend !!

Posted by Sheila on May 4, 2010

Hey Everyone,

Sandy and I have rented a cabin in Hocking Hills, Ohio for the weekend of Sept 24th, 25th, and if you choose, also the 26th.  Sandy and I plan on staying that sunday night also. 
    Our plans for riding are the Adena Hockhocking Bikeway, this is a 38 mile ride round trip, and will be a fairly casual ride for an afternoon.  Those of you wanting to do more riding there is a 30 mile round trip bike road called “Big Pine Road”, and there are also other trails available.  This will have more hills and may be a little more challenging.  Those of you that may not want to ride, can do some hiking, and any of the other trails, caves, or  just sit back and enjoy the cabin.
    The cabin we rented has 5 bedrooms, and 3 bathrooms (which will be shared by all).  Cost per couple could be anywhere from $200 – $250, this amount could even be lower, depending on the number of people going.  There are also 3 Queen size sleeper sofas and we will work a better rate for anyone interested.
Even if you are only interested in coming for one night, don’t hesitate to ask about arrangements. 
Bedrooms will be on a first come basis.  Meals will be discussed after we find out how many people will be going…Maximum # for cabin is 16…
 The Cabin is beautiful, and only a year old…anyone wanting to see cabin they can find it at www.hockinghills.com/woodlandridge/doublepine.htm you can view the cabin and see what it has to offer.
 
    Anyone interested please let Rob  or Sandy  know.
         Rob : 419-769-0923
       Sandy: 419-769-2514
 
 
 
                                                                                 Thanx,
                                                                                        Rob Omlor
