35 miler completed



So my comrades from ProCycle never showed up....I have evidence that despite what Raphael told me and what time it looks like previous Saturday morning rides took place, that they actually left the shop at 7am and not 730, so by the time I got there at 740 they were already way ahead.  So I stood there trying to figure out what to do and I decided to do the ride anyways.

The first 10 miles were pretty hectic, definately not great roads for cyclists.  Disney property was full of busses and one pretty much ran me off the road but luckily there was no curb and I was able to go into some grass.  I am certain he did it on purpose.  But it was a varied route and once I got to Windemere it was a lot of fun.

Since then I haven't done much.  I laid around and ate and ate and ate.  I ate a big breakfast before I left and I ate two Clif bars throughout the 35 miles.  Once I got back I've been laying around and eating and I took a nap.  Just ran to the store to get a pizza and some brew and I am about to take my bike apart and put it away and start to get things somewhat in order.

Lots of reflecting.  I have plenty of stories from this week and I am sad to go because the world back home seems harsh and grinding.  Just coming down from the high. I got to live a week where my only priority was riding my bike and eating and drinking - my god it was awesome.
