Since the last I blogged I have gone on two 30 mile bike rides with a twenty thrown in for good measure.
Yesterday My sister and her husband Dennis and I went on the Fish Lake trail all the way to Cheney. It was so fun. Of course there was the slight heads winds and then there was a slight and then not so slight up hill. I kept looking at the speedometer thinking we should be going faster! Once we got to the end of the trail I teased Dennis the end of the trail is the first food stop on the Eight Lakes Leg Aches ride in August! What no food! On the way back as we passed Fish Lake there was a Blue Heron right on the trail it took off just as we approached. So graceful!
Ah the road home tailwinds and speedometers that were 15- 19 miles per hour much better and so very fun.
Now my bike has needed a little tune up for while I needed a new seat and I wanted to get this gel tape put on the handle bars to help with the numbing in my hands. So my brother in law "suggested" this new bike shop that had just opened. Thus my sweet bike is in the shop for a week. Hmmm you don't suppose they had an ulterior motive? Like maybe trying to catch up with me?Let em try I say I will be on on Gertie in no time.
