sit back my children and you shall hear ofthe midnight ride of CorsairMac.
Ok..that didn't rhyme but I am a bike commuter that used to think Centurys were things people like BikeGoddess did.....not lil ol lady bike commuters like me! I mean bikegoddess and lance armstrong go hand and hand to me while I'm just happy I made it home up the friggin mountain again tonight before it was time to go to work again the next morning.
Until I came here and Bikejournal.com....and met people that were just like me and were doing centurys just coz they could.
and ya know what........ya can, and I did.....and I did again....and I did again.
now I'm thinking a century a month maybe - just coz I can! how long have I been riding this time around?....since mid-Aug 2004 and I had Never done more than 25 mile rides in my previous biker life. It isn't the miles anymore it's "how much time do I have today?"
Corsair "yup...feeling fiesty tonight can't ya tell?" Mac
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!"
