Weekend rides

Saturday was cold!  Of course did I put on a long sleeve shirt?  no.  David and I rode 14 miles...the longest I've road before!  It was great but I made a bee line to the hot bath tub when I got home.  Today when we went out I found a long sleeve shirt and a jacket to wear.  When you live in South Texas its hard to be outside when it gets below 55 outside!  hahaha
The best thing about riding a bike is being able to "hear" and "smell" the outdoors.  Besides the diesel of the trucks when we are on the busy streets...I love to smell the smoke from the fire places, people grilling (yum) and you can actually smell the laundry drying as you pass some houses.  Today I got in 11.8 miles.  Little sore on the ride but I kept going.  It was too cold to stop!  hahaha  I'm leaving for South Dakota this coming Friday so won't be able to ride while I'm gone.  Maybe I can get in a short ride this week before I leave....
