Sometime it just seems the world is conspiring against your riding efforts...I was only going to get 5.5 hours of sleep at most last night but I was determined to ride today because I likely will be off the bike for several days now. And then Childus NoSleepus interupted that at 2:30am. Unfortunately I was unable to go back to sleep after that and after tossing and turning for an hour and a half, I got up.
I hauled my bike outside to find that it had rained recently, but was not currently raining. Just enough to make a mess of your bike. I got dressed and was about to hop on when I found I had my first flat of the season. At least I was at home and that helped a lot as I found a small piece of wire (think steel belted radials) piercing the tire that required a small pair of pliers to remove. I finally got rolling about 10 minutes later than my usual schedule and had an alright ride. Not as long as I had originally intended because shockingly enough, I was tired. But I did it none the less! :) |
