Bessie and I have been riding a lot this summer and thanks to the help of Bessie's cousin Barbara (my stationary bike), we just hit a milestone: 500 miles!
Never would I have believed I could survive the pain in the butt (quite literally) of bike riding so many miles! But I did! And what got me there? I think it was my hairstylist Kayce because when I told her I was riding my bike, she asked about my goals. At that time, I really didn't have any goals...I just wanted to ride so that I could exercise, burn calories, and lose weight!
Kayce's question had me dig deep within myself to come up with a realistic number. I think I started with 200 and worked up from there. What is my next goal? 1000 miles! By...? The year 2015!!! Can I do it? You bet!
