Another 40 mile commute

Last Friday I drove in because the weather was so rainy. I decided to track the milage since I had the truck. 20 miles each way! So yep a 40 mile commute. Right now I am going for 2 times a week because I am a bum, wimpy, lazy and generally need a day for my body to recover. With the Charlotte gas crisis (or lack there of gas) you would think less traffic. Well I haven’t noticed it yet and I think it is because the price of gas has not increased very much. Today I broke a spoke so I hope to get that fixed tomorrow maybe a new rim the old one this has been the third spoke that has broken.

This morning I felt like the ride was easier. Not sure if it was anecdotal or because of the big pasta meal I had the night before but I think that it was easier. On the way back I didn’t feel like crying on the last hill to my house like last time but I was defiantly useless once I came home. “Feed me Melissa please!” And now at the ripe time of 8:30pm I am thinking about going to bed soon (old old man). Let hope I can get my bike fixed and get over 100 miles in this week on my bike.
