My mistress moving in with me…

was quite the excitement recently. For several years I have considered purchasing a road bike. I ride my mountain bike to campus often, but at 35 pounds it is not fun for longer rides. Several friends in the area ride, so I thought with Florida’s ideal climate, the flat geography, and the need to pedal some stress away, I would join them in cycling adventures. Now I know what I’ve been missing the last few years! In December I found a used Specialized carbon road bike in Ocala. It weighs 16 pounds and flies like a kite through the air. A 30 mile ride seems like a walk in the park. I feel like a 16 year old with a new driver’s license placed in a NASCAR race. I have more bike between my legs than I know what to do with…rather scary when I think about it. I’ll keep you posted when I complete my first century race.
