Man, I feel ya.

I was tired when I suited up for the ride home today. Told myself, "I'm going to take it easy. I'm in no big rush to get home. NOT GOING TO PUSH IT EVEN ONCE."

Bull****. First climb I tried to spin like a madman, see how far up I could get without downshifting or standing to hammer.

Steep hill on last stretch, didn't walk the bike. Spun, pumped, shifted like crazy. Got home panting and sweaty as hell.

Don't regret it. Maybe I'll take it easy next ride.

On one hand I get home and I feel so healthy and fit, and I am inspired to eat tofu and do yoga.

On the other hand I feel worked and a little disgruntled and I deserve a beer or six!
