i rode the road bike monday.... it started raining on me... when i got home (again wet and cold! ) my bike was sooooooo filthy! what i totally didn't understand: how did my seat... WHERE I WAS SITTING get sand on it???????????????????????????????????????

i mean i understand the back of the seat... the bag... the light... etc.. .the the seat where i was sitting????????????????????????



i was quite surprised that mike was so helpful on the ride! i think maybe he felt like a mentor! he's not my fave person on road rides... but i was thrilled that he was helping me sunday! and even hubby made sure to thank him for helping me and staying back and slow with me (cuz you KNOW he would have much preferred whizzing down the hills like the rest of the guys that did eventually catch and pass us (and fast!) on the downhills!

i really can't wait to go again! as long as it's not too hard like the time with KC when i crashed! (we made sure to ask kc about me going on this ride cuz we knew he wouldn't get me in over my head a second time! lol!)
