Ride With a View


When I am completely focused on something, I often forget my surroundings completely. This drives my hubby crazy as I am often running into things (or people) because my mind is elsewhere. It's difficult for me while training for a ride to focus on much else besides mileage, speed, distance, and incline. Lately, however, I've been trying to really and truly enjoy my rides and surroundings. I am extremely fortunate and grateful that I live in an area that affords such gorgeous backgrounds in which to train. I hope whatever you guys did this weekend it was a great one!




I hope everyone's week is off to an excellent start!
