Another weekend down. \u00a0We kicked off Friday in the usual fashion, down at the Brooksider. \u00a0I really didn’t want to go down there as I was feeling a bit tired, but with the (very slight) break in the weather I thought I better take advantage of the patio. \u00a0After visiting with everyone for a while, we headed off to dinner at Piropo’s Grille<\/a> in Parkville. \u00a0(Why yes, of course<\/strong> we had a coupon.) \u00a0Donette has been there several times, but it was only my second time there. \u00a0I had a ribeye, which was awesome. \u00a0The sides were a bit under-whelming, but who cares about them anyway. \u00a0Donette had a KC strip steak, which was very good too, especially with blue cheese crumbles on top. \u00a0That did us in, night-ender.<\/p>\n

Saturday I took Teagan up to school, which was the last class of the session. \u00a0Oddly (at least I thought it odd) everybody else in the class had slowly dropped out, and for the last two weeks it’s just been us. \u00a0Hey, personalized training, can’t beat that. \u00a0I’m not sure why everybody else quit. \u00a0Didn’t like the class? \u00a0Scared of the killer pitbull? \u00a0Who knows. \u00a0I didn’t find the class “fantastic” but I thought it helped, so who knows. \u00a0Maybe everybody just got tired of cutting into their Saturday. \u00a0At any rate, we ended up signing up for the next session too; \u00a0Onward and upward. \u00a0After that, I took a short bicycle ride, then joined Martin, Brice and Falstrom at a few nearby haunts. \u00a0We killed the afternoon playing pool and shuffleboard (which I lost every single game of) and then it was back to the couch to watch the Royals game.<\/p>\n

Sunday I woke up (very very very) early and picked up Munkirs for a bike ride. \u00a0We headed off to Louisburg, KS and rode in the Cider Mill Century<\/a>. \u00a0We weren’t on the century (100 mile) route though, we took the 50 mile option as part of our grand training plan towards our planned century ride later this year. \u00a0We rode this one last year<\/a> also, and I distinctly remember despising it, particularly the big hills. \u00a0This year was a pleasantly different experience; \u00a0It was actually a rather easy little outing. \u00a0Could have been the nicer weather this year, our increased mileage thus far, or maybe it was just a lucky day. \u00a0That said, I did get the dreaded leg cramps with about six miles left. \u00a0Eeesh, I hate that. \u00a0Luckily I was able to shake them out pretty quickly and finish up though. \u00a0Later that night, Donette headed off to Starlight to catch the Mama Mia show with a few friends. \u00a0I opted for the Brooksider myself, as \u00a0I was absolutely craving a cheeseburger. \u00a0Odd, because I rarely crave food at all these days, but I couldn’t shake this one. \u00a0Musta been the bike ride. \u00a0It hit the spot too, yum.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
