Today was my first 25 mile ride and I finished. I am so proud of myself. The hills were monsterous to me and I did not walk the bike at all. There were times when I thought I would die and give up but my hubby was there to cheer me along and support me through the tough moments. Now I am looking forward to the next ride.
Outstanding Job! Hills build character and muscle!
Way to go!!! Keep doing those hills and before long you'll be looking for more of a challenge because they'll be too easy for you! :D
That is a milestone :)
Congratulations!
Thanks I am feeling it now. :D
Yahoo and congrats!
You might want to do a really slow, easy, short ride tomorrow to spin some of the lactate out of your legs.
Just think - only three more 25-milers & you'll be doing a century!
Good for you!! :):DI like it when I feel I have accomplished something new at the end of a ride. My husband and I did hills around our neighborhood today. He thought he was going to die--we only did 12 miles!!!!!!!!
I told him we are too used to a paved trail with modest inclines. Those are challenging too, but in a different way. We see how fast we can go or how far.
The hills today gave us motivation to continue expanding our fitness into other areas. I'm looking forward to seeing how this new "training" affects my ride on the paved trail.
Congratulations! Keep riding and you will soon find yourself climbing those hills like a goat!
Congratulations.
Isn't it nice to have someone along to encourage you through. Good for you and your husband!!
Excellent! We are about in the same place. I did 25 today, and have been at it about 3 weeks- that crooked 2x4 for a seat that I have been sitting on is starting to straighten out...
Oh good for you!! http://www.mysmiley.net/imgs/smile/party/party0011.gifQuote:

Yeah for you, Disney ... Keep it up!
PJ :D
Way to go, Disney!
By the way, where in Northern Indiana do you live?
I live between North Liberty and Laporte in a small town called Fish LakeQuote:
