When I rode to Dinkytown last night to go see Charlie Parr play, I hydrated with a PBR, in true summer biking style, but have been limiting my alcohol, generally, to help get into better summer biking shape. I wonder if it matters when you're drinking ultra watery PBR. Regardless, having only one weak beer helped me get on my bike a bit easier this a.m. after having only about a combined 5 hours of sleep last night, tops.
Today we had our first team ride. It was about 24 miles, which I converted into a 52-mile ride. I've ridden about 180 miles over the last week, which feels somewhat surprising (but may confirm that perhaps I'm in gran fondo le freak c'est chic mode?). It was a perfect day of biking, followed by some bike maintenance (buy/install new brake pads/shoes, buy/install new water bottle cage, get handlebar cap thing put on, clean chain, etc.), yardwork, and a ride with my hubby to a local pizza joint for dinner.
Total satisfaction.
