You got this!

On a ride today after not being out in about 6 days so I wanted to get at least 15 in. I decided to ride my compass route, obviously N-S-E-W, which gets me about 7.6 so I was going to do it twice. Second time up this 100 yd long hill I spot a family of 6 crossing the road ahead of me heading for the village pool. No chance they will be in my way so I keep up my cadance and my head down. About 3/4 of the way up I here the voice of the 8-9 year old boy yell "You Got This." I looked over, smiled and saw by the expression on his face that he was not busting on me, he was serious. As I crested the hill I quietly said to myself, Yes, I have got this. I had a great rest of my ride and hit 15.4. Went home and had a cold drink, played with the dog and smiled.
Frank.
