Woke up this morning with a very unhappy back. Decided to do a lame 1 hr road ride today, one more tomorrow to get to 21 straight days, then take a day off. Or two.
To further cement the decision, I nearly got hit not once but twice today in the first 4 miles of the ride. First was my fault, coming out of our complex it's a steep downhill to a left turn on Concord ridge - I didn't see a green suv approaching as it blended in with the trees behind it and had to brake hard. Then crossing 202 via Everitts, when the light turned green, I went straight across and some jackass in a white pickup turning left decides to whip in front of me - another very hard brake and fishtail to a stop, many expletives sent his way. The Gods are telling me something, or as Bill Engvall says, "Here's your sign".
Anywho, already wrote far too many words for such a short ride but one last observation - must be an organized ride today as I saw more roadies in this one hour ride today than I've seen the last 3 weeks combined.
