Hell of a ride!


So, this was a dry day, no rain, only a strong west wind.
I can handle that.
So, i decided to go to this jewelry shop in this big university city.

I placed an order there, to make some very nice collier, with all kind of semi precious stones...
In the colours of the chakras.
There are 8 main chakra colours.

I decided, i want to take an other route.
SO, i did!
My god! i saw almost all little small places between my village and that big city.

At a certain point, the route board all say; 14 kilometers..
it was like i was in some time loop, always 14 kiometer.
I was going through all kind of very small places, and still it was 14 kilometers to that big city!

I did not pay any attention on those board anymore.
They try to mess with my mind!!

It was a lovely ride and at the same time a hell of a ride!
It took forever, or so it felt....

Normally it takes about 1,5 hour to go to that city, now it took me 3 hours!
Or maybe even more!!
I was kaput!!
But did recuperate rather fast...

Got to that shop, there is a woman working there, she and i really do like each other, right from the start.
It is nice to have such a contact.
we tease each other, just fun.

She wanted to make the collier all very lady like, very tender, fragile,
i told her; dont, i will break it,
I am a kind of a rough , rugged person, so make it as sturdy as you can, without letting it weigh like a brick!
After that, we did get along very well.

Did some other<b> shopping </font></b>to and treat myself on a ride back home in the train!
Headwind on a straight piece or road, till i am home, is no fun.

On the way, i heard and saw a flock of cranes, i love their sound!

It is funny how that sometimes happens, not often, but does. I was at a Blues club out in the country on an old dirt road above the city and I live below the city. There is a road that goes around the city I could use to get there. The show was good and when I left I got on the same road I came in on but after driving, I ended up in the city closer to the club than my house? Did not think so but I had to have turned off on another road. Went back another time and did not see any places to turn on. Life is good, funny at times

Don't stop.

It may have been a long ride , but it sounds like a great adventure!

You should get stronger every day, as long as you take time to rest.

electros,
I dont go through the Pyrenees, i go by them, there are, maybe, some hills, but no real mountains.
I do understand what you say, about those tires.
I know the difference, been on an racing bike, too

This is just a regular city bike, nothing fancy.

I have to think about it..... see what i can do.....
Thank you for thinking with me, for my traveling....

boh,
Thank you,

Did you find any books about this sour-alcalic food plan? yet?
There are still some books around, mine was a second hand book, and the other was with a very unknown publisher.. called Delta.

Cranky,
Thank you!
Yes, i believe i am getting there, little by little.

My endurance is already a bit higher... even if i rest more then a week, or so..

The bad weather season is coming, so i wont go on my bike in stormy weathers.
Pick the good days to do some training.
