I miss the thrill of the open road with nothing except for my bike and me.
Too bad my helmet is inside of Jason's car....and he is on a bike ride of his own across town. =/ While I've ridden without a helmet before, I much prefer there be a large plastic and styrofoam piece between the organ that defines who I am and asphalt in the event of a crash where my head is involved.
Especially since I have a track record of crashing into just about anything. The scars are all over my legs to prove it.
Perhaps I'll settle for a run or a swim. The serious training for the century begins after the defense this Friday (dun dun dun!). I've been told that I should probably get in at least 2-3 long rides a week. Yikes.
Sometime this week when I'm too stressed out by my paper, I will attempt to make this casserole.
