I’ve decided to get into better shape, so I woke up early and dusted off my road bike. Its the first time I’ve ridden it since Kelly thoughtfully got it tuned up as a Christmas present. She left the tires flat on it (so I wouldn’t get wise to her surprise), so I had to pump them up first.
Time was ticking away. I rode up the street and back. Felt pretty good.
Well, I’ll just ride over to the top of the greenway, I thought. Hey, that didn’t take much time at all. What the heck, why not do the whole greenway circuit!
I was 15 minutes behind my normal morning schedule but boy it sure felt good to be pedaling again. Even if it wasn’t very far at all. I got my bike computer put on, too, showing a few bursts above 20 MPH and averaging around 12-15 MPH.
Maybe I’ll pack my bike into my car and leave it in the downtown office. Even though we won’t be downtown residents for another few weeks at least I can tool around the city during my lunch breaks.
