Bike Ride!



So, on Saturday I went on my first "real" bike ride in many years--- We started in Boulder and went to Niwot, CO and then back (total 18 miles approximately). Man oh man, it was interesting. What I learned on this trip:

  1. Wear more layers than you think you need--you'll probably use them all
  2. Buy some kind of wind-proof gloves for next time--the wind just cuts right through traditional gloves
  3. New sunglasses for biking are in order---I looked ridiculous wearing mine
I think it was definitely a good experience, but I am disappointed that all those spin classes I took didn't prepare me very well for the ride. Oh well.


Just a note, I had 5 layers on--so I look a bit puffy--and no, it's not fat, but the fabric, duh (if you don't believe me look at my thin legs)
