I guess I am a real biker. Err, cyclist. Whatever. Busy long weekend. Went to Chula Vista in the Wisconsin Dells with my parents on Wednesday night-Friday morning. They wanted to bring Lucy to the indoor water park, and she had a blast. So thanks to the parents. Drive up was uneventful. Surprised at how I only had an Edge signal well into Wisconsin. That made things interesting when I rely on it for navigation. But was able to get there eventually. I did manage to update my iPhone 4S to iOS 6 that day, and had no problems with the Maps app. Waterpark was fun, if a little cold. Lucy could only really go for about an hour or so before her lips started turning blue. Probably shouldn't have put her on one of the bigger water slides on the big adult playground part, but she loved the toddler pool and slide. Also spent a lot of time in the lazy river part too, since that had the warmest water. She actually had a nap time on Thursday, and then went for more waterpark time, then some arcade action (my mom had a voucher for free tokens). Then my parents were nicer and took care of Lucy while Tracy and I had a nice dinner at Kaminski Bros. Chop House, which was really good, with ginormous portions. And even nicer, they took Lucy home with them Friday after lunch at Buffalo Phil's Pizza & Grill, which served food via trains. Friday night Tracy and I barely made it home in time to make it to reservations at Maude's Liquor Bar. Tracy really like the cassoulet there. Saturday went to IHOP for breakfast, then I got a Yakima Boa bike rack system for the Xtracycle and went to The Pony Shop to pick up Russell's bike and truck it down to Wicker Park. That was fun, and awesome. And another great use of the Xtracycle. Carbo loaded with food from Pasta Palazzo. Sunday did 62 miles of the North Shore Century with Russell, Bjorn, Hales, and Chuck. First group ride, and tons of fun. Felt great up until I had to do the 8 mile ride home from Evanston. Picked up a little snack from White Castle on the way home. Then met up with the guys for dinner at Lillie Q's, before finishing up the football game at Bjorn, Carlo, Akira and other's place where Russell was staying. Good times. Pretty tired still though. Happy with my bike, and the recovery ride down the Lake Front Path this morning. Except that it was cold out.
