    I feel for you, we were sitting around the house the other day trying to figure out if we could fit in a bike ride, a motorcycle ride, kayaking, going for a hike, and maaaaaybe fit in an overnight camping trip.

    We all just need 5 day weekends and 2 day work weeks.

    Queen suggests "We all just need 5 day weekends and 2 day work weeks. "

    there's an idea! or just quit work entirely.

    Smurf you're not a bad person! You're a good person! You care for animals, you have varied interests, guys in either type of saddle should be falling all over to get to you.

    It's hard to balance different interests, mine include my dog, cycling, and Aikido (a martial art). My Aikido training partners don't understand why I whine when bikes go by. Our dojo is on a popular cycling route. They know without the bike my knees would not be fit to train and I'd have stopped by now. My cycle buddies don't get why I'd train indoors on a sweaty mat on a beautiful day except that it helps when I gracefully fall off the bike. My dog wants every moment with her and as a living thing that trumps all.

    I'd probably have a Sandan (3rd degree black belt) by now if not for the two other interests especially the dog, I don't care, my humble 2nd degree black belt is just as black.

    My dog would be better trained if not for the other interests, I just try to keep some balance.

    And Smurf, just wait'll your 50 because at my age no one I date (so far) gets why I work out this way, as one gal said "I think you've got two screws loose to ride that far"

    "check please?" ;-)

    You will find the cowboy who likes it that you ride or at least digs the legs, or the biker dude who admires that you can ride a horse like the wind, till then try to keep some balance and ride what feels right to you.
