A first for me today
And I have the heat to thank for it!
I've not ridden all week because of the horrible heat & humidity we've been dealing with here in Ohio. We've been walking after dark. But tonight, I decided I was going to ride -- I've missed my riding time.
I've been wearing cycling shorts, but I'm self conscious about my legs in lycra, so I've been wearing a lightweight pair of capris over them. Tonight, I decided it was too darn hot, so I rode with just the shorts. I survived and no one wrecked at the sight of me
I didn't get in as much of a ride as I wanted -- DH & I stopped by and got our 5-year-old grandaughter -- she was very excited to take a bike ride with us! Then, a few miles of riding after we dropped her off, it started to rain. But, it was a worthwhile night -- fun with the grandaughter and a step in the right direction with the riding shorts. One of these days, I hope cycling shapes my legs enough that I want to show them off in lycra!!
