Before anyone gets all crazy on thinking that this was anything amazing – it wasn’t. It was just me enjoying the sunlight.
This morning started a bit crazy and my sister decided that I needed to get out of the house more quickly rather than later and she sent Donald to come get me. He wanted to take me off-road riding up in the foothills. It was tough on me. I haven’t been that winded and my legs feel like jelly tonight. Lots of narrow paths with rocks, sticks, cactus, and other people to contend with. I think that I would like to try that again soon.


I’m just guessing on the off-road portion of about 6.26 miles. GoogleMaps isn’t exactly perfect and I’m not 100% of where all we went. It seemed much longer than that but regardless – I had a blast. Donald does this trip at night with just a single head light to light their way. I don’t know if I’m up for that yet.
Lots of people out enjoying the weather – that was cool too.
After our ride – and not because it wasn’t challenging enough – I just wanted to stay outside (maybe not wanting to go home had a little to do with it as well).
I opted to ride back home. This portion of the the trip was about 21.8 miles. It’s mostly flat or downhill so it’s not that it was that much of exercising – just getting my Vitamin D!
It was a nice ride. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again – bike riding is my therapy. It keeps me sane…
