The plan is to ride tomorrow—the first time in weeks. Out of curiosity, I went for a quick two-mile spin a few moments ago. It was both perfect and humbling. 53×12 is a lot harder than it used to be. I’m still a little winded, even though the “sprint” wasn’t more than a quarter-mile. C’est la vie.
The night of the fourth, while protesting a parent’s declaration to call a cease fire to their bottle rocket wars, an eight year-old was heard saying: “Why? It’s Friday and we’re just trying to be kids ‘n shit!”
It’s summer. Time to be a kid ‘n shit.
Hey glad to hear you are getting out on the road again…. sounds like it was a little earlier than planned. Good luck but don’t push it too hard- go for the long haul!
Thanks Tom–turns out it was a bit premature, even though I tried to keep it as easy as possible. Patience…
