June 14th rides

[KathiCville]

On Saturday and Sunday combined I did 100 miles of the local MS150 charity ride. I rode 75 miles on Saturday, the longest ride of my life by 18 miles, woooohoooo!

The 75-mil route included a truly wicked uphill at about mile 68 that nearly did me in. (And plenty of other folks too.) Sunday, I logged 25, another ride which ALSO included a couple of ascents that left people gasping for breath.

Both days were gorgeous, fellow riders were terrific, support was fabulous, whole event was great fun and gratifying!

The MS150 was also the last big outing for my trusty old Schwinn. She will now be officially retired to become the touring bike that she's really meant to be, and my new lighter, sleeker Fuji will take over the top spot as my main ride.

I rode my bike. For the fist time since the accident. If I were mangled, that might seem great, but truth is, I've just been a chicken.
My fiance decided that I've become miserable, and talked me out for a good old fashioned trail ride. We went 20 miles, flat, at a nice easy pace. It was really nice to be out. I may do it again. Okay, it was GREAT to be out, and I'm looking forward to going again.

Imagine, a cyclist needing to ride a bike to be happy...

Lori, I'm glad you made it out for a nice, easy ride. It's awesome that your fiance talked you into it and you're less chicken now.
