Today's Sunday Ride Tracking Sponsored by N9UWE
I'd planned on driving the land-ship to Church this morning, but wondered how tough it might be to ride the bike.
I looked at the map and was mildly surprised to find the meetinghouse was only about 5 miles away. FIVE miles? On a bike? Not even qualifying as a warm-up ride.
So, I packed up and took off. I intentionally forgot to wear my coat today but tucked my dress pants legs into my cowboy boots and away I went. It wasn't a hard ride particularly, but the warming heat and the humidity takes a toll. I had tied my necktie very loosely leaving mostly open collar for air but I was still pretty gamey by the time I got there. Fortunately, I was almost 45 minutes early, so I had that much time to almost get cooled off and dry up the armpits.
Coming back was of course even warmer yet, but what the hey??? Any excuse to ride the bike works.
