Sunday Rides

Bike - 30 miles

I really enjoyed today's ride. Last week, I could barely manage any speed whatsoever while constantly hearing a clicking sound. Yesterday, I heard that same sound and realized that I wasn't able to shift into the faster speeds. That's why I was like molasses! I thought it was dead legs after the marathon.

It's kind of scary riding the bike on the streets here. We play chicken all the time and I can't win at that game. Riding behind 2 cars, an oncoming car decided to turn after those that past him. But you-know-who was right there. He didn't even stop, just kept going and gave me a little wave. I, in turn, gave him a great big shout!

I am thinking about getting a horn for my bike. Since everyone else uses them here, why can't I make my presence known when I need to. Maybe I can get the big, rubber-ball type of contraption.

BTW, my legs felt like jello last night before going to bed. What a wimp!
