Birthday ride revelations
In a slightly different way of interpreting "riding my age" I must now be 41 years old [10 year loss :D].
I took my lightest bike with the TT bars and backpack. It was 26F when I left and 44F when I got home. I made three detours. At 18 miles out I got my haircut. A mile away was Performance Bikes where I bought a tube for my new downtube folder. Three more miles put me at my dentist. The dentist did deep cleaning on the right side of my mouth - ouch. My pocket is ligher the cost of a nice cycloneusa 500w crank mounted motor + a wattmeter. The dentist was very cool - he let me keep the bike in his office. It turns out he goes car-free with metro. The hairdresser also lets me park inside. Some discoveries/sightings:

Bragging again by reminding us that you still have your own teeth and hair.
still 10 miles short and No Pie. Happy birthday though and hope you can get the extra 10 in sometime. |
Hang in there!
I always say that to people who are doomed. |
Only a confirmed masochist would go to the dentist on his BIRTHDAY

Just hope the hair comes back.........

Ok, I went to dinner and did not have the key lime pie :mad: I had the Creme Brulee.

True- but my doctor lost my appointment for my yearly physical so I had to do something. Another favorite is to donate blood. Oh, it's coming back - and I'm glad I have a personal trimmer. Thanks, on my recovery commute into work today [35F and drizzle] I got a "you're really hardcore" complement. That and a hot cup of coffee made my day.
