Since we bought our bikes over two years ago, we’ve been meaning to take a ride around a state park near the airport. After huffing and puffing up the third hill, I was about ready to call it day and head back. I knew I was in for it when we coasted downhill for the first mile or so (means uphill on the way back!) but Eric encouraged me keep going and I wound up having a great (yet tiring) time on the 7.5 mile ride. I can’t wait to go back after I buy some better biking shorts. Heh.
I was a wimp but someone wouldn’t let me quit
