muggy, buggy, fixie ride

muggy: the feels like temperature at 5:00 this morning...80 degrees! a light wind was blowing out of the southwest, then southeast, then southwest.

buggy: twice i ingested bugs. i wondered what kind. they weren't very tasty. i drank several swallows of gatorade to wash them down.

fixie: i couldn't decide which direction to ride, so i rode east, then west, then east, then west, then east, etc., etc. i rode without shifting for most of the ride. i wanted to see what it was like to ride a fixie. i've decided i wouldn't like it much. i hated pedaling while making sharp corners. i felt like i was going to clip a pedal and wipe out. i'm shifting on my next ride. (23.06 miles @ 18.2mph)
