i have to admit that i had a pretty bad attitude after my inaugural ride for 2008. it's a downer when you're riding alone and not performing optimally! however, things are definitely looking up!
ride one: 38 miles. average 13.2 mph.
ride two: 40 miles. average 15.6 mph.
ride three: 50 miles. average 17.2 mph.
it's a good feeling, especially with the weather coming around. i felt like superwoman after the ride. strike a pose.

it also helped that i dusted off Lady Colnago and took her out for a spin. i love that bike!
the "E" in my myers-briggs profile type really needs the social aspect of cycling. it was good to ride with friends again. according to my buddy alicia, we need more girls on the bike!
