Hmmm, you raced a butterfly. I just took one in the face! Got me right between the eyes! 'Spose it could have been a bee or wasp. That would not have been fun.
CONGRATULATIONS on your solo ride. It's such a joy, huh? Headwind or no headwind, 36 miles is quite an accomplishment! You should be feeling really good right about now. Good job!

Ah, grasshopper, you have discovered the joy of riding on your own.It was a cool experience and I had a lot of time to think, pray, soul-search and contemplate the beauty of our planet.
For me, it's like meditation.

Thanks for the update Slinke! I came on here tonight to check up on you - you've been in my thoughts most of yesterday and today. I'm so happy for you - what a wonderful experience. Welcome to the world of solitude - may it forever be your friend!
Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand, strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming: "Yeah Baby! What a Ride!"
