It was cool; probably mid-forties with a strong wind blowing. If it had been February, I’d have been thrilled about riding outside, but it was May and I was whining instead. I put on a long-sleeved shirt under my riding jersey, socks, and a head covering under my helmet. I also grabbed gloves and stuck them in my jersey pouch hoping I wouldn’t need them. I never did.
I
knew I was going to be riding with Nancy on the mountain bike trail the next
day and didn’t know whether it would be a good workout since I’d be new to the
sport, so I decided I needed a longer ride.
I managed almost three hours and returned to the house with toes numbed
by the cold winds and temperatures.
After a warming shower and a smoothie, I drove to Twinsburg to meet John
and help him move a washer, drier and some old cabinets from the garage to the
house. It wasn’t hard and burned hardly
any calories, but it did give me a chance to utilize some of those Survival
Workout muscles.
