Nov 23 rides/Sunday

[elk]

OK then....It's still Saturday Nov 24 here...V, I think we are at opposite ends of the time zone line from Raven...

and it's bl**dy cold! 40 degrees...But it is glorious weather for riding!!!

I went for a 10 mile ride on JA-bike and what used to seem like a long ride is like a sneeze now is that all there is?...overcast, cold, hardly anyone out on one of my favorite trails which is long and windy and goes through parks and wetlands and woods and over bridges and across streets and around sharp curves
... I realized how much harder a straight and flat ride is...I get kinda bored....

I had that sensation of floating on my bike, but only when I coasted...it was like no part of me was heavy....now I want to get that when I peddle too!

I LOVE JA-Bike!! I love the dropped bars with 6 hand positions and the smooth shifting and my new brown Brooks...
and I love my wool..ever since my last shipment arrived, I put the stuff straight on ...and have only taken off the socks to take a shower!! (it must not have been that long ago...:-)
