Well, we've riden together before, but yesterday since my MIL is here to be with the baby before we leave for Mexico, we decided yesterday to go for a long ride. Well, I swear, it was amazing that we didn't take off our helmets and end up trying to hit eachother with them on this ride. The route we took is a constant uphill climb for 20 miles along our beautiful Sandia mountains. Even though I've been spinning, I found it a little harder then I had anticipated. I averaged 9-12 MPHgoing up depending on the hill. DH of course struggled with some to, but moved along. We got to the turn around point and stopped to rest....I had a few choice words for him becase he dropped me a couple of times
which he PROMISED me he wouldn't do. He had this smirk on his face and kept saying...are your tired? and it wasn't in a nice way it was in a mocking way.
So, on the way back MOSTLY downhill we were crusing along averaging 20-25 mph and it was FUN but he still left meand I was still nervous about some of the major intersections even though we hit all the green lights, I still get nervous with all the turning lanes. We have ALOT of drunk drivers here in NM and not to mention MANIAC drivers that run at least 100mph up there on that stretch of road. It was a 42 mile ride and when we got home I was beat. He kept saying...ready to go again and making smart a#% comments and said I guess all your spinning isn't doing all that you thought. We have a tendency to pretty very competative with eachother....obviously...Anyway, he's NEVER been to a class and I know it would kill him if we wen't so I just didn't say anything, because had I, we'd be in divorce court right about now.

Anyway, I'm sorry ya'll I just needed to vent. I felt that he pushed me in kind of a good way, but I'm still terrified of some of our BIG intersections here not to mention we had 1 person almost hit my husband and another guy pulled out right in front of me. We were both wearing BRIGHT green vests, and jackets so you couldn't miss us and it REALLY pissed me off. What is up with that?? Are they just bitter angry people because they are at dunkin donuts smoking at 8AM and we are out being healthy?
Anyway, thank ya'll for listening.....I hate to get on here and complain, but maybe riding with DH isn't such a good idea afterall!![]()
