That may be my new mantra.
Actually I haven't ridden on the road since May. I've been riding our river walk on my gravel bike, it's the Centurion Comp TA that RT gifted me. It's just so much fun to ride and I don't have to be stressed about cars. Currently it's my most fun ride. I only do about 8 to 15 miles.
However, finally, I rode on the road yesterday. It seriously had been a while. I rode 20 then later another 17 with a friend. I felt surprisingly good. I rode my '85 with 8 speed Campy and forks from an '88 Ironman that RT gave me.
Son, the wheels are in motion.
I sent a link of HnH to my biking buddy and said we need to do this and used your line, "
We don't hafta be fast. All we gotta do is finish." Like me he's not in great shape right now and I can't remember the last time we rode together.
I need to take new pics instead of recycling old ones. It has new tires on it now...and saddle is level.
