May 4, 2010,
Beautiful day today. Since I have my grandson for 5 days at our home, I am trying to get on the bike early if the weather will let me. Today it did. I left the house at 7:00 am and headed for the Hook. The wind was a mild wind out of the west. Sun came out on the Hook. It was an enjoyable ride. Today I was listening to my iPod that had a whole variety of artists on it. After about 3 hours, I turned it off. Oh, how pleasant the quiet was. Since I have been using the iPod a lot I have forgotten how peaceful a bike ride can be. Think I will leave the music off for a while.

About Me
- Phil Benson
- I am 64 years old and have been a visionary my whole life. I saw Frank Shorter win the Olympics in 1972, and I said I want to run a marathon. Since then I have run 50. I watched the Ironman Triathlon in Hawaii on TV and I said I want to do that. 3 years later I finished the Iron man in Hawaii. I was 45 at the time. I watched all of the Tour de France this year,2009,and I said I want to do that. Unable to compete in the Tour, I will do the same miles they do on the same days in July. Can I do it? The saying goes "Man can achieve what the mind can conceive".
