Yard work is bad for mountain biking

...or I'm just woefully out of shape.

I spent all day yesterday diggin' stuff, haulin' stuff, and generally trying to act manly to generate and rebuild some of my guy cred.

Then today I went mountain biking and generally flailed about for 3 hours. My forearms and shoulders were too beat up to even control the bike. I went down once, found myself wandering off the trail dozens of times, and almost introduced myself head on into a rather large tree at 20mph.

So since I'm not too good at the manly stuff, and trying to be good at it just makes me suck at what I'm almost good at, I guess I'll just have to give up rebuilding the guy cred and focus on being a leg shaving girlie man.
