Yep, thats the beast. You will think she is not coming but will show up after you burst the balloon and round the next corner. Sometimes she catches up when I am nearing the fountain, but then I am very fast :D Be sure to ring only once or the silly thing gets confused and won't show. :D

Yes, first ring to a distant pet is "come to me". :D
Second ring is "run to a place my front wheel points". :o

Yay, I'm back in! :D I couldn't sign in for a few days; it wouldn't work. Quit exercising, too... pathetic.

Yes, 1dayfit, that is the monster.:twisted: But it's nice to have her company if you can get her.

Jvv, do you have to go on the right side of the street coming from the bridge to get your kitty? I'll have to watch for this angled curb when I ride again. I just know that I have to get near the green/blue building, but if there is a quicker way I am all for it.

Kescah I ring when I hit the angled corner. I am on the left side then. Always try for the shortest distance between 2 points.
Welcome back. :D

Really. I'll try that again. Thanks for helping me get back in. :D

After almost a week without cycling I still managed about 16:40 today. Calves were a little sore to start but loosened up. After completing 30 minutes I went on to do a run around the island and worked up a good sweat. It is surprising how quickly muscles slack off. I feel pretty good. Spring is in the air here so I might start raking the lawn or womething (almost 2 acres to clean up after winter) That should make the muscles move :-)

Hey JVV- Just logged in 16:06.48! Wiiiiiiii! I sprung ahead of you. I'll enjoy it while it lasts. :D

You may be there for awhile. I keep trying but seem to come up short, there is now however incentive (I hate eating dust) :D Congratulations. Did you use any new shortcuts. I seem very consistant in my times now, this morning I was back at 16:15 and I don't see where I can cut 10 out. On the upside I beat my own record for obstacle course when I finished cycling. :D

No, nothing new just getting the balloons better and faster and some new batteries. I'm consistently getting 16:15 to 16:30 now. I could see where I could have easily gotten under 16 if I hadn't had a couple of flubs on my record breaking run. It seems like the faster I go the less cooperative the animals are! Or maybe it's because I'm just impatient. :D I want to be the first under 16.

I thought the same thing. I swear the faster I went the more my kittie (bad kittie that is) would play tricks on me, like not popping balloons until I turned around (and lost time) I am still trying and you never know I just might beat you to the 15s. If not it sure won't be for lack of trying :D
