I was Going to Call this “I Can’t Ride my Bike Without Handlebars” but I Hate that Song so I Won’t

Summer is here and so is nice weather, this is the first week I’ve been out and about on my bicycle. I bought it late last year as per one of my self chosen UBBT requirements and to follow up on the second part of the requirement I’ve been riding it around a lot. I rode around for an hour and a half on both Sunday and Tuesday. Today I rode my bike to the University, about 7 km, played squash for two hours straight then rode back home. My legs feel like jelly, no forms reps tonight, I hurt everywhere. So that’s about 24 kilometers today, about 48 so far this week and its only Thursday. I bought an odometer for the bike so I can keep track of km’s

It feels good to ride around on a sunny day in the river valley. I think I’ll try to even out my farmers tan and start riding around without a shirt on when it’s particularly nice out, with luck I might be able to go the entire summer without running into a pole or wiping out while distracted by a cute jogger.

We should go biking together... I always go alone and I forget how close you are to me. River Valley... Anyways. I could use a biking buddy.
