Sunday ride Auburn Black Diamond

Challenging weather, hills, traffic, and lack of motivation. But I did it. Another of my 2:5s

Back in the saddle

After nearly all of April traveling in Italy, it's good to be home and ready to bike again.

When in Rome

Arrived just after 7a local time and made the train trip from Fuimicino airport downtown and to my guest house by 10a. Weather is cool and sunny, it's spring and I hear my first church bell above the noisy street below my window. I will head out soon to kill jet lag, get lunch and see what's what.

Friday March 28

Spring is taking so long, or perhaps it's because of the last nearly 3 months political crap. So this extravagant plum tree in blossom is wonderful. More of my journaling is now off social media. I don't want to be tied down by social media peer pressure to be performative. I'm biking, working on home projects, waking up my spring garden, cooking meals, walking, socializing, reading, watching dvds, resting, planning trips overseas and local.

Overdid it

Spring ride but 35+ miles and too much sugar gave m exhaustion and chills. So got #40 bus home to rest and warm up. Likely anxiety related
