back on the bike
I left four days of clothes in my locker the other day so I wouldn’t have any excuses this week not to bike to work.
So what was my reward? I woke up to frickin RAIN this morning!!
There was a moment where I considered driving but managed to argue myself out of it, drug my sorry butt outta bed and got geared up.
Once I was on the road, I really enjoyed the ride. I suppose that shouldn’t be too surprising considering how much I love running in the rain so why shouldn’t I love biking in it too?
I left at 7:30, was showering at 8:20 (50 minute bike commute) and sitting at my desk at 8:30.
Many of you female runners will undoubtedely be resentful of that last part (the 10 minute shower and change). “Sister” Corinne always gives me hell when I raz her for not wanting to run in the rain at lunch because afterward she has to re-do her hair and makeup. My wife Lori is probably nodding her head and calling me names right now too!
I guess quickness for getting ready is a perk for being of the male gender!
PS. I think I might need to invest in some windshield washers for my biking glasses!
