Good Day

Today I went with Tracy on my bike (which I love!) down to a gorgeous park, where we essentially spent the entire day between biking there, biking around the area, and biking back. We even took a dip in the lake while we were there. It was LOVELY (though soggy, as I forgot Douglas Adams' invaluable advice). Dinner was good too, the Chinese restaurant we stopped by was quite delicious.

By the end of the trip we had biked a total of 28.5 miles. As I have not biked in years, and never biked seriously, I was surprised at my stamina. The fact I have a great bike totally helped.

So now I'm all showered off and sleepy and ready for bed, and I have a nagging suspicion that I'm going to be incredibly sore tomorrow morning. Sigh.

On a related note, bikely.com is a great resource for biking routes if you don't know any. The number of miles vary (though on the site it's listed as km, meaning you'll want to check out Google Calculator if you're used to miles), so you can tour the entire Seattle area or just the small town of Forks.
