I was on my bike for about a fourteen mile ride today. That is usually not a problem since I can do it in a little over an hour but I was on my bike for about four hours stopping once for twenty minutes total. I am not sore from the ride I am sore from sitting so many hours in the saddle.
The ride was a ton of fun. It made me fall in love with my city even more to ride so far along the rivers on such a beautiful day. Ryan loved the ride and wants to do it again tomorrow. Aaron was not sure he wanted to go so he stayed with a friend and I brought her son along. Thankfully my friend even made allergen free dinner for us and I did not have to cook. A friend who attempts to cook allergen free is a friend indeed!!
My legs are fine but my hands and arms are killing me from riding in the mountain bike position for so long. Hard to type. This is what you gets kids when your Mom is old. At least I try to keep up!
