She was pretty happy and I must admit for me I was but it was terrible slow pace for me about 12-14 mph on flat ground. What I would not do right now to go on a very slow ride with her today...………...

But she would be the first to point out I made sure I got a run or a ride in for the day under most circumstances and my priorities could get messed up. It was easy to put off things and go for ride including be more attentive to her. But you know...…...I am sure she is in the Communion of Saints because if she is not...………...this deacon has no hope.

Moral...………...tell your bride you love her and enjoy.
