April 10 rides

[redrhodie]

Yesterday, I rode the bike path with my friend, who was on her new Bianchi road bike. Riding with a complete newbie is really funny. I had to tell her things like click the left hand thumb thingy one time and get into your little chainring now before we got to the hill. I felt like a mother duck leading her peep (hey, an Easter reference!).

I'm so proud of her. We rode 11 miles, and she was totally happy when we got to work. Her goal is to do the bikepath twice. Oh, those were the days!

YES! I remember my first 11 mile ride! I was so proud, and amazed! (and exhausted!)
....and it was only three years ago!!!
