Can you believe it?! A new record for me! WooHoo! I am a bicycling fool!
I’ve been riding so much these past few weeks. Typically I like to go 15-20 miles at a time and I’m trying to plan for a bigger ride on Saturdays. So this week I accomplished my goal of riding to Carolina Beach – and beyond! Funny thing, but when I’m looking at the map, I suddenly become determined to reach a certain point and in this case, the road literally ends. You can catch a ferry here and of course I had to see what this was all about it. So, I just kept going. I felt a bit like Forrest Gump and the endless running. hehe 😉
I was VERY tired when I got home, but definitely a good tired. There is a much bigger bridge going to Carolina Beach than Wrightsville Beach and it’s a bit steep so I managed quite the workout there. Not sure when/if I will try to beat this 45 mile goal. Perhaps I should continue to do more medium size rides. (I guess this is now getting to be around 20 miles or so) I certainly don’t want to burn myself out although I can’t imagine that happening as I am enjoying riding so much.
I’m really noticing the difference in my hips/booty as well. Now THIS is good progress!
