Like Riding a Bicycle

Today, I went to Target (because it's closest) to buy some things to tune up my bike. I bought a pump, fix-a-flat, and a water bottle. After fixing the tires and making sure everything still works on it, I took it out for a spin. I read on a cycling website that it is best to ride only a couple of miles at first, so you can get used to riding a bike again. But, as the saying goes, it is like riding a bike, you just don't forget how to do it. So, I went about 11 miles in about 45 minutes. It felt great! And not like running great; I actually enjoyed it.

Just a note on cycling. I know many of you will disagree with me (like Kasey), but I need to tell you that a cyclist on the road has the same rights and rules as a car. I know it's not a perfect system, but that's the law. So, be courteous to cyclists. I got honked at today even though I was in a wide bike lane. It was pretty annoying. So, the next time you get frustrated with a cyclist on the road, just treat him or her like a driver that is going slower and working harder than you.
