Wow ... this is tough!

I've begun riding my bike.  It's really been fun ... except when a car passes me so close I feel like I could reach out and touch them!! EEK!

I've been taking spinning classes religiously for 5 years.  I sort of feel like a spinning champ :)  However, riding a bike into the wind is NOTHING compared to sitting in an air controlled room!!  Holy cow!!

The speedometer my husband put on the bike is really helpful.  It at least lets me know how far I've gone (and makes me feel like a loser when I think I've gone super far and it's only 6.5 miles! HAHA)

My helmet is also giving me helmet hair.  My husband laughed when I told him this.  He said he never dreamed I would use the phrase "helmet hair" about myself; although, as you all get to know me you'll realize having a bad hair day is a very bad day for me :) hee hee

  1. Heather,
    Glad you got your bike and were able to take it out for a spin. This Saturday we will talk about riding with cars, etc. and it comes down to practice, practice, practice. I'll also give you some hints on helmet hair.
    See you Saturday!
