Tim and I rode today at noon. We had a nature ride. Let me continue. Our
first encounter with nature was a small pack of three dogs. The larger of the
three tried to climb up Tim's front wheel. Fortunately he did not succeed.
Our second dog-in-the-road was a Doberman Pinscher that Tim, with a loud bark,
startled back into his driveway. By the time the dog regained his senses we
were well on our way. We then took a new, very pretty route, that climbed for
"a long time" into the wind. While climbing in granny gears we started a
stampede. Yes, a herd of cattle started running at, and with, us. (Just shows
you how slow we were climbing that hill. Did I mention it was into the wind?)
At the top of the hill I encountered a large black snake in the road. I let
him cross with plenty of room to spare. Few more miles down the road, Tim
encountered a very large black snake in the road. Tim, however, decided to
ride between the
snake and its intended destination. The snake appeared to try to climb up
Tim's leg. Fortunately it did not succeed. Throughout our ride the wind tried
relentlessly to beat us into submission. Unfortunately it did succeed. About
5 miles from home I hit a brick wall. Tim mentioned something about being
tired too. I limped a couple of miles further with Tim, then we went our
separate ways and I limped home. The only thing that kept me going was the
thought of the large bowl of yummy brown rice and steamed asparagus in my
fridge. I heard Tim say something about 4 ice cream sandwiches and a nap. :)
