(no subject)
Today I biked:
Down Riverside Drive and the West Side bike path from my house (107th street) to my office (9th street).
Up to a movie screening on 57th street from my office (through midtown traffic!)
Back to my office (through Times Square!)
Back to Times Square for another screening.
From Times Square back home on the surprisingly serene Central Park West bike path.
I am so goddamn proud of myself. I've had the bike since last October, and thus far have only worked up the guts to bike around the UWS and occasionally on the West Side bike path on the weekends. I worked up the guts today to ride the bike for work, and even though I kept giving myself outs, options to take the subway on my other errands for the day, I never did it! I biked 14 miles today all told, which is, like, nothing by Anna standards, but way more than I've ever biked before.
My ass hurts. But I think I'm hooked. Biking is way fun, it turns out. But also way sweaty. Need to figure out how to not reek all the time.
