The Value of the Meander

Today, I met Matt at the Fort (see this season's obligatory shot of the river from the Fort), and we decided to just ride and not follow a planned route. We rode over some familiar terrain, but tried some new roads and learned a thing or two. I'm sure this is some sort of metaphor for life, blah, blah, but I'm really happy just to have learned how good or bad some roads are.

I realized when we stopped at our first of several snack breaks (snacks were a stated priority for today; I'd recommend the gf chili chocolate brownie at the Hopkins Depot), that the BikeMS bracelet Alicia made me a year or two ago matches my jersey.

We start the TRAM on Wednesday. I am really excited despite the super toasty weather forecast! It's a fun ride and there are lots of good reminders throughout the week of why it is so important to do it.

In the meantime, I'm looking forward to cooking dinner with and catching up with my friend Marcy tonight. She's good people. Although she is just one person.
