Today I didn't ride to work. I drove the car because it needed new shoes. I guess you could say it got the Louis Voitton of new shoes. Bridgestone 80K mile shoes. It was desperately needed. One tire was Nascar bald and the others weren't far behind. I'm thankful riding a bike is far less costly when it comes to repair work...
So I drove home, knowing I had to be back at school for a 6:30 PTO meeting. I got home, took care of the sick husband, then headed out on my bike to ride around the lake a couple times. It was really beautiful out. The lake is strange in that some days the water is Caribbean blue, and some days the water is charcoal gray. Today was Caribbean blue. It was so pretty. The wind was challenging, but you know how I like a good challenge...
After my double circumnavigation around Hefner, I headed to school for the meeting. As I pulled into the parking lot I noticed a lemonade stand across the street. I was thirsty and needed some sugar, so I hit it up. Score!
After the meeting I donned my evening PLEASE DON'T HIT ME gear. I had 4 blinky lights on the back, one on my handlebar and a headlight- and my hi-vis yellow jacket. If you hit me it's because you were aiming for me.
Made it home about 7:30. It was a very good day!!!
Total mileage for the day: 24
