But I just got home from my first Night Ride! There was  movie stop (those are all the super dark photos), the disco stop (the blurry photos) and doughtnuts at the end. We chatted strangers up, my chain fell off, we passed people wearing outrageous costumes, and had a lot of fun.

We are totally doing it next year.

And now I’m going to have my one celebratory beer and go to bed.

But first, and inventory of what hurts:

  • my ass/sitbones - I got all “fashionable” and didn’t wear proper bike pants. I’m paying for it now.
  • my shoulders - I kept hunching over - bad posture, bad posture!
  • my feets - they went numb. they just need to get used to the torture.

Other than that, I’m perfect. And now, I will go to sleep.

    if it was fun, then it is well worth the bottom pain…right?

    Oh yeah, well worth it. It was an amazing time. But I didn’t realize what 25 miles without those poofy (protect your ass) bike pants would feel like. It hurts.

    But I’ll be back on the bike this week…for myself. :)
