I took my bikes to the shop for a tune up and got them back the other night. I took the comfort bike out today to see if I could remember how to ride. It has been more than four years since I rode regularly. Bill and I went for a ride once two years or so ago and I got sick not even two miles out. I did the same lap today, Blue Angel to Pine Forest. It was lovely!
The weather was nice, maybe in the mid 70s. The bike computer didn't work, but I discovered the Garmin has a cycling setting. Since I got back I have taken the time to adjust the display layout so I can see miles and distance. I really love this gadget! When Bill told me to take it I really didn't see the need. But now I think I would feel funny without it. How would I know how long I ran or how far?
Anyway, it was a nice 4.93 mile ride that I did at 12mph in 24:34. Next time I'll take the road bike and see how long it takes for that same lap. I would go tomorrow, but I have to take Rava in for her surgery first thing. I'll go later in the week.
