I rode my bike 23 kilometres to town today. It was warm, in fact I came back home to get rid of some of my clothes. About a third of the ride is downlhill but into a stong headwind. It held me back so I didn't need to use my brakes. Apart from the dust and grit which got noticeably worse as I got closer to town I enjoyed the ride. I'm thinking I might do this about once a week to go to work.
It took me an hour and a half. A bit longer than I thought it would. It means I will have to leave home. at 6:30 to get to work by 8:00 Hmmnn.
Today I picked my husband up at work, but not before riding to where the car was parked. I pulled down the back seats, took off the head rests so the seats would lie flat and stuffed my bike into it. I had to move both driver and passenger seats forward a lot to get the bike in. We went to the pub for a beer before driving home. when I ride to work I won't be getting a car ride home or a drink at the pub. I will have to ride up Foothills Blvd. a lot of uphill. I'm still thinking about wether I want to do this.
