36 miles.
It was supposed to be 38 but in the last ten miles it was only me and one other woman and she knew an alternate route back to where we started that followed a bike trail instead of riding alongside all the cars, so I decided to just stick with her.  It didn’t occur to me that changing the route might change the final distance but in the end I figured after riding 36 miles, skipping out on...

Cycling. It's a love/hate relationship.
Each time that I ride I think about the things that I like and don’t like about cycling and I decided I’d keep a running list. Things I like about cycling… Workin’ on my fitness. Cycling outdoors beats spin class and the treadmill any day…except for maybe rainy days. Riding downhill…the wind is in your hair and it’s exhilarating.  It feels a lot like...

“Every asshole in the world says he loves somebody. It means nothing…What...”
– The Last Kiss Marc and I were watching some random movie.  The movie wasn’t really that special.  In fact, it was a downer most of the way through.  However, I did manage to catch this little golden nugget that’s really just a variation of the age old saying, “actions speak louder...

25 miles with Candy.
In the past 6 months I’ve developed a new hobby, cycling.  I’d always loved spinning indoors and finally got the nerve to take it to the street when I signed up for a beginning road cycling class at Solano.  I wasn’t sure if I’d really like it but it turned out hat I loved it! So much so that after the class ended I searched for ways to continue and learn more about...
