Today I put in just a little under 20 miles. It's difficult for me to push myself harder (although the cycling itself is getting easier) when I am not yet on the road. I have gone from aksing myself, "What did I sign up for?" to actually looking forward to hitting the road and meeting the new adventures and challenges while I am out there. Things like, what will I do if I ride all day and there is no where for me to sleep, or what if I am in the middle of nowhere with a storm coming my way?
Anyway, tomorrow is another day and I will get back on my bike and ride some more. In the words of Jim Carmines, "Stay within yourself... know your limitations." If I can do that, I'm sure I'll be alright out there.
Stay tuned...
