Hee. Hee. As usual, Breezny hits the nail on the head.
In an effort, to get outside the "boundaries of my skull," I decided a few months ago to enter the MS City to Shore Bike Ride in New Jersey this upcoming October. Winter has dragged on, but now spring is here and it is time for me to begin training.
I am currently in the market for a bike rack and for a bike computer to track my miles. I have begun to identify training routes. I am fortunate to live in a gorgeously scenic area and I am really looking forward to feeling the freedom riding my bike brings me.
I have a terrific bike that I love. I am scheduling a tune-up to get her ride-ready. Still, I am out of shape, so I will start s-l-o-w-l-y. Rather than make grand goals or chart out the exact training course, I have decided to give myself a few weeks to a month, just to ride and enjoy it and see where I am at in terms of the number of miles I can easily do. I will build from there.
And, if an ally or friend, or better yet, gasp, a girlfriend, comes along to help me awaken to certain mysteries about myself that I have been blind to, well I will welcome the revelations.
