The surprise today was a 26 mile ride that turned into a 50 mile ride. The Sara's told us about a by-pass to Trader's Helper Hill that added some miles to the route. It added 14 miles! That pushed up the the overall mileage. Add to that the detour down past Jimmy and Chris's home and we got in a nice long ride today. I was very tired and needed a nap before work. Getting up early every morning will do that. Instead I got to eat a quick bite and head on in. The benefit is the gain of strength and calorie burn. What doesn't kill you.....
Storms gathered around and about. There was a big one to the west just as I was arriving at work. I guess I cut it close to get to work without getting wet. It is good to ride the scooter. I enjoy the open air and sense of freedom.
Melanie was feeling somewhat ill at ease with some of the changes coming. I hope I was able to allay her concerns. I think we all can use a little reassurance.
