27 MILES
After 4.5 months of not cycling!!!!
It was awesome it was my first official ride out here in the PNW!!! I had my tires pumped and ready to go and my phone rang and a friend was wondering if I wanted to ride today so my first ride wasn't even solo! Which is probably a great thing I wasn't alone. I have a fear of getting lost and not being able to get home for hours!!! So a friend was greatly appreciated.
-The Ride-
Freaking kicked my butt!!!! Not only did I feel slow I was SLOW. I felt out of shape, however I still loved every last second of it. My calf cramped a little. I was unprepared and should have had food with me the last 8-10 miles were um... Not sure I even remember them. I needed food, not good!
-After the Ride-
I couldn't get my PPJ and chocolate milk down fast enough. I felt beyond exhausted but was overly happy with my 1557 calorie burn. My legs are sore, I am anxious to ride again!
-No Pics-
SAY WHAT????
I was way to focused on where I was and just spinning the peddles that there was ZERO snapping of the camera :(
NEXT time PROMISE!!!

27 miles for your first ride in a very long time is a great accomplishment! I'm not planning to do that many when I hit the road bike next and it's only been three months for me and I have been mountain bike a few times lately. Good for you!

Wow! I am so impressed! 27 miles is amazing!
