Today is supposedly the hottest day of the year and yet I feel the call of the bike. That said, I may only feel that call for 3 or 4 miles! Hopefully, I can get 10 in before the sweaty mess overtakes me. I’m going to ride on one of my favorite paths, which is wooded. I think it’s probably the smart thing to do! It’s not very hilly, which is a bummer, so I won’t get a super intense workout in, but I figure if I can GET a ride in and survive 100 degree temps, I’m doing well! I’m still not conditioned for this heat on my bike. Perhaps one day, but not right now. Sigh. If only I had a road bike. But, that’s for a later time when I’ve proven several things to myself.
So, in about an hour, I will be heading out and heating up. Hopefully there will be more posting from me! :O)
Noelle & Disco Stu are getting married this weekend in Greenville, SC and I can’t wait to party down with them! There are a lot of fun activities planned, so it’s going to be a busy weekend. But, busy or not…I WILL be getting a few good bike rides in. We are staying a block away from the Swamp Rabbit Trail and I’d love to get at least one LONG ride in while I’m there, as well as a few short rides.
I’m seriously addicted to my bike. I’m in the process of bike shopping, as my current bike is fairly old and pretty beat up. I don’t think a tune up would even do it much good at this point, plus I want to move towards a road bike or some sort of urban bike, for faster speeds and better hill takeability. Yeah, that’s my word. Andy bought me new gloves the other day, so I feel like a pro. I told him that he’s welcome to buy me a new bike. I don’t think he went for it, though. ;O)
Anywho, back to the wedding. I’m really looking forward to spending 3 days with my Duke House girls. I always miss them, but have been missing them a lot more than normal as of late. So, it will be a good few days to get a fix!
