took the long way home

I decided to get motivated biking home last night, so instead of my normal 3.5 mile route home, after the 3.5 miles in the morning I went a more grandiose route that ended up being 8 miles according to Google Maps. God I love Google Maps.

Anyway, it was a great ride, and I rode in again this morning with no big deal. It's really astounding what your body will adjust to. rode 4 days this week, missed tuesday b/c of errands, but all that, then the long way home last night, and this morning my legs feel a little tired, but still no big deal.

only thing I didn't like about it was a good part of it was on US1 and another major road where people just whipped by. couple a times trucks were pulling boats, and those things are really wide. I'm going along, when all of a sudden I look up and the side of a boat is whipping by me 3 ft from my face. That and the times people don't bother or can't give me some spacing while passing. But whuddevuh, I knew that b/c I'd be on those roads. Just wish this town had bike lanes. oh twell.

rage on.
