The difference one day makes.....



So with the strong/cold winds of late that seemed to just pierce every layer of clothing I have, I thought to myself, how the hell did I get through this last year? So instead of taking my workout outside last Wed - Fri, I kept things indoors on the trainer.  It felt wrong.  Isn't it too early in the off season to be strapped to the trainer?  But then came Sat. and voila, there it was!! A blue sky, cold fresh air, barely a wind and firm ground. Yeah it was cold but a different type of cold than the days before.  I'd call it crisp.  I couldn't wait to throw on the winter riding shoes, hop on the Greenway and just ride.  With my camera in my back pocket and the buds in my ears, I was off.  I had the entire trail to myself and drifted off into my own little world.  I even caught myself singing out loud to the I-pod a few times (loser).  Spinning away, I was reminded that this is the winter riding I've come to.......tolerate.

Fast forward to today. Wet, messy, cloudy and cold. Indoors it is! The difference one day can make.................

Cheers,

Sue
