Hey ROAR, Lynn, and Pablo!
Just dropping in to wave a big ‘hello’ your way and to send out a special wish to Lynn—hoping you’re on the mend and feeling better soon.
I’ve just peeled myself off the bike after what can only be described as a punishing ride. The kind that makes you question your life choices—mid-pedal, no less. Tomorrow’s not looking any gentler, with a rendezvous set for 10 AM at the Rattlesnake for the Sheep Mountain Ride. Brace yourselves; it’s another 4-hour saga.
Today’s journey was a 4.5-hour marathon in the saddle, complete with more uphill battles than I’d care to recount. But hey, what’s a bit of extra climbing among friends? It’s all part of the charm (or so I keep telling myself as I question my sanity).
Tonight’s Reflection
As I bid the day goodbye and gear up for what’s next, I can’t help but feel a mix of exhaustion and exhilaration. There’s something about pushing past your limits, surrounded by nature (and occasionally, some questionable route choices), that brings a sense of raw achievement.
Resources for the Road
For those curious about the trails conquered and the paths yet to be tread, here’s a look at today’s route and a sneak peek at tomorrow’s challenge:
Here’s to hoping that tomorrow’s ride is kinder to our spirits (and our legs) than today’s. And Lynn, we’re all rooting for you—get well soon so you can join us back on the trail.
Good night, everyone. May your dreams be filled with smooth trails and favorable winds.
Catch you on the flip side …o/o
