My goodness, where has the time gone? This year has passed by in a blur. In August, I purchased mountain bikes for my daughter and myself, and several times weekly, we’ve been exploring the great outdoors. I’d been researching bikes for several months and narrowed my selection to Trek and Specialized bikes. Since Trek wasn’t available at any local bike shops where I’d visited, I went with Specialized. I must say that we’re both happy with the selection. It gives us another way to be outdoors, enjoying nature.
The quickest workout is within our community. It’s about a mile back, surrounded by trees on both sides, before opening up into our little community. Upon leaving the neighborhood, there’s a hill. While you might not notice it within a vehicle, you’re aware of that hill when you’re bike riding or running. This hill has a slow incline, so it’s a lactic burn until it levels off. I’ve joined a few local biking groups and plan to do my first century (100-mile ride) sometime next year.
I can imagine riding a bike surrounding by hills and sun touching my face crossing the leaves of the trees.
