Lisa and I went on a long bike ride yesterday to Delray Beach and back. By long, I mean 9 miles each way. I’m not absolutely sure why this was hard for me. We used to do 30-mile bike rides fairly easily.
I think it had something to do with the wind in our faces, the backpack full of glass tupperware on my back, the high heat, the excessive humidity, my uncomfortable seat (if you’re a dude, you know what I mean), and the fact that the backpack straps are positioned in such a way that my hands would go numb after about two miles.
It was hard. We had fun once at Delray Beach, but the ride back especially was not fun for me. Lisa had fun, though. She wasn’t even tired… Cardio freak. 🙂
