The motivation to get back on the bike has been lacking because:
- My head cold is still pretty bad.
- It is cold.
- I’m tired.
- I want to sleep.
- I don’t want to ride.
But, with a pretty afternoon and a long day deserving a break, I pulled on too many clothes (I didn’t want to be cold today) climbed on the bike, and set out for a leisurely pace. Hah! Leisurely is relative I suppose.
It was good to get back out. Part of the trail is closed for repair, so I needed to take a detour and tried to get close to 20 miles in. It didn’t completely cure the attitude, but it helped some. Tomorrow’s forecast is for rain and cool. I may take the time to get some more cold weather gear rather than ride. Odds are pretty good that my next ride will be Friday.
