Glorious Day!

We couldn't have asked for a better day to go riding! It was sunny and around 60 degrees! I ventured off the "easy" trails and tried some "more difficult" and definitely pushed my limits! One hill was so steep and rocky my bike stalled and I started to slide backwards.... scared me! I had to have Darren ride it up over that part for me. The steep hills are spooky - you have to really sit far forward on the bike and lean over the handlebars to keep it from rolling over backwards. You know it's steep when you start to feel that front end lift up!

We had a great time yesterday but are both sore this morning, hobbling around like a couple of fogies. We have decided to start working out lifting weights so we can better enjoy our rugged hobbies. Darren's work has a great fittness center that we can both use for only 8 bucks a month. That will help the shoulder and leg soreness... I don't think there's any help for the tender tushie syndrome though.
