Wow! I finally got back on the bike…it’s been a while. Went out for a nice 20 mile bike ride on one of my favorite roads in NJ. It was pretty challenging for me because of the strong headwind, the rolling hills and the unseasonably warm (90 degree) weather. During the ride, I was wishing I had brought my inhaler…I was missing and needing it a lot!!! Looking down at the odometer, it read 17.4 miles…I had about 3 miles or so left and it felt like I hit “the wall.” I was like, oh shit! I hope I can make it back because there was NO way in hell that I was going to walk…I’m too proud for that! So needless to say, somehow, someway, I found a way to make it back to the car and was pretty happy. Two things I need to bring with me next time…my inhaler and more water!!! As I was riding, I thought it was pretty cool to see so many American flags hanging from each house…so many proud Americans!
