Is this sick?

So I and my family have just been ravaged by the flu. As a result I have lost all the holiday weight I put on. This is the first time I have gone into the spring at my goal weight in recent memory. Am I:
A. Sick
B. "Sick"
C. A normal cyclist
D. All of the above

Unfortunately I'll be working all weekend. My project at Good Sam hospital isn't finished and we can work this weekend instead of nights next week.

At least I'm getting it over now instead of the middle of the summer!
Enjoy and have a great ride!

I am up for some miles on SAT but before 10 could be cold-cold. Lets see the per hour temps tomorrow and make a decision. The new starbucks @ 21 by Lowes is good or Caribou by SAMS also a good place to get together. I will try to get some west-block legs together. Later & be safe
