OH! The wonders of cycling

Just a brief note for today. I've been cycling like a madman the last few weeks which have taken my time away from blogging a lot. I'm training for the Wilderness 101 again after two years off. It's a 101-mile single-day mountain bike race that I've done pretty well in before. That's me traversing the rock garden at Three Bridges Trail at mile 30 (pic courtesy of Leah). The time off has served its purpose and I have fallen in love with my bikes again.

I'm hoping that on today's ride we'll get some pictures of some of Rothrock State Forest's wildlife - salamanders, frogs, turtles, hawks, crows, hemlocks, rhodedendron, and maybe more. Good ones will be posted later.

Don't worry, there's still plenty to bitch about in the world of evolution and climate change denial though. Really, just read the most recent ICR Acts & Facts and your head will explode. Why is it impossible for some people to understand the evolutionary linkages between turtles and other reptiles?
