    I have hills both coming and going, no way to get to or from my house w/out hills. First 10 I always seem a bit sluggish, have not found my rhythm and mentally am not quite in the zone. After the first 10 or so, my legs start cooperating and I find my rhythm.

    I talk to my bike too.

    Ugh. The beginning. I hate the first 10-15 miles. My BF is patient with me, he will pull, but even with him pulling, I am slooooow, and hold him to 15-16 mph and am dropped on the hills. Once I warm up, I can work and climb, and by the time we are on the way home, I am (sometimes) waiting on him.
