I want to ride my bicycle.
First training ride of the season happened today. Er, yesterday. My legs got all wobbly at the end, and they have been threatening to give out if I try to walk downhill or on stairs. Still, the weather demanded outside activity. It was a sneak preview of spring, complete with hilariously dense traffic along Alki beach, or whatever they call that place in west seattle where the water starts.

My sunglasses from the last 2 years finally snapped in half, and I had to borrow Helen's fancy Oakleys (ten times the price of my cheesy shields). They didn't take to my mirror, so I spent a lot of time whipping my head around to look behind me. You can't see it in my picture, but I have extremely long hair. You ever whip your head around while wearing a braid that goes down to your seat? Good thing I was wearing eye protection and a helmet.

Good first ride, overall. Tomorrow: first work monday of the year!

Dammit I thought exercise was supposed to help you sleep

I love that feeling when you can hardly walk from using your leg muscles too much. :P

Could be. Any intense workout can do it, though.

yes i do know what its like to have long hair, because mine is down to my butt. flies all over the place when i drive my mustang convertible... so i tie it in a braid or something sometimes. but it still does whip if i turn my head around. i feel for ya buddy. :\

But I don't ride a motorcycle! Maybe one day, but not today! You know who has long dark hair, rides a motorcycle, and is a hit with the ladies? And likes you a lot? [info]yellow_woods! I think you're just so fond of him that you like guys that have similiar qualities. No harm in that, I suppose. However, also like him, I'm in a different stage of life from you.

Now, you're a special girl, but I am currently very smitten with a certain [info]autosloth (a.k.a. "Helen" or "H"), with whom competition is basically impossible. Not that you'd ever want to compete with her - she's so nice and compassionate in person! Much nicer than I am, I think.

I'm pretty sure you just meant I'm kewl in a friendly way (especially since you're calling me "buddy"), but you never know! Weird things have happened to me in the past. (don't! ask!) plus, now everyone else will know where things stand. That makes me happy.

Ahahahaha! Don't worry, Pal. Jennylynn told me when she first saw your pic that she figured you had long hair because you had a face that would go good with it. I read your comments about me to her, and yes,I am very fond of Jennylynn, but she's not interested in me or any other guy as far an ANY kind of relationship is concerned, not IRL and especially not in LJ However, there are a hell of a lot of guys who wish she was. :) Trust me, when she told you that you were 'groovie' she was in no way coming on to you or 'flirting' in anyway. Jennylynn just always compliments guys with long hair,but so far, no guy even with long hair has charmed her enough to keep her interested enough to be anything more than a friend. NOT EVEN ME! :( I thought it was hilarious, though, that she thought you rode a motorcyle. I guess she thought you were being facetious when she read your title "I Want to Ride On My Bicycle" It's all good.
