Got up at 7:00, ate breakfast, got all my shit together, met a buddy to ride. Sat in my car in the rain for 50 minutes & BS’d, went to McD’s for a couple breakfast burritos & hash brown, rode in the rain & froze for a whopping 2 miles. Whoo, I’m pooped from that workout. Not a total loss though, found out I really like those burritos. 😋 ---

> [@fshowcars](#): > > who eats a burrito before riding a bike for miles ??? 🤣 lol, i was hungry! It was an easy two miles so it all stayed down. Now the time I ate half a pack of turkey bacon before riding, I didn’t feel so great half way through. Or it could have been the giant hill that did me in. ---

I will park my truck at the bottom and be the “ski lift” for the day i’m up for biking, I ride at cedar creek every nice weekend with my wife and kids. I would like to get some off roading time in though, that flat trail ride by the river gets boring after a while. ---
