a "leeeeetle" ride

since i was on call and couldn't go with my family to wellington tonight, i dinked around the house for awhile, read some of cav's book, "boy racer", and then decided to go for a leeeeetle ride.

i rode south first, down to the end of pine and cut across the east edge of the park so i could make a loop around the ball diamond.

after circumnavigating marty harrison field, i headed toward main and turned south once more. i sped down to 20th avenue, turned east and doubled back on lucky lane. turning right on bryanna, i circled back to main and crossed over to continue a full circuit around town passing the botkin elevator along the way.

when i turned south onto pine once more, i decided i hadn't had enough, so i rode around the high school and turned west on allen. i rolled down this street then that, circling around for another fifteen or twenty minutes before i decided it was too dark to keep pedaling.

i entered my garage again at 9:00, slightly damp from sweat and happy as a lark. my legs feel great. ready to knock out a few more miles in the morning before a three-day break. (6.46 miles @ 11.6mph)
