life on 2 wheels

i want to be a person who exercises regularly, but i always seem to put some obstacle in the way of doing that....plus, i really want to swim and without regular access to a good pool, this becomes a summer-only activity. (Note to YMCA--call me back! I applied for financial assistance like a month ago!!)

anyway, my friends L&K invited me out for a bike ride last night and it was the furthest i've ever gone on a bicycle. roundtrip was 20 miles. I couldn't believe i made it through the whole ride...it was exhiliarting feeling what my body was truly capable of. I'm going to do it again next week, i think. I want to keep up this feeling. I'm sure it's no revelation to anyone who does exercise regularly, but it was a nice reminder. A nice mellow high.

also, i was reminded how beautiful the landscape is here in Maryland. And really close and accessible.

also also, i need to get my motorcycle license test taken....haven't done that. But have been doing all my errands for the last 2 weeks on my moto-bike in an effort to re-acquaint myself with how it works.
