Yep, I rode today - its autumn here in Australia and beautiful weather, about 25 c (mid 70's?) Had a family kinda morning and this afternoon was my parent's 60th wedding anniversary. Whole family was going to a city hotel for 'high tea' (it's an english thing, finger sandwiches, scones and little desserts) Thought I wasn't going to get to exercsie but at 12.30 thought I could manage a quick MTB ride, got back with half an hour to spare, jumped thru the shower, wet the hair and put some leave in conditioner on and decided I'd go curly instead of straight. Got dolled up and had a fantastic time with my parents, my brother and his 3 kids (plus 2 partners) our three kids (plus 2 partners) my mother in law, aunty and of course my gorgeous hubby. What a special day we had, lots of chat and reminiscing! We are a very blessed family.

Pretty glad I made the effort to squeeze the ride in. Also good as it's my first ride since I hurt my back a week ago and not exercising is not good for me. Roll on autumn!!
