After a couple of grumpy days when the yellow dust from China kept me from going out to play, I saw my chance when the weather report showed beautiful skies, light morning winds, and clean air for Sunday. So it was up at 4:30 and on the road by 6. And again, such a satisfying day. So good, in fact, that rather than turning back once I reached the coast (I’d planned for about 50), I turned south instead to loop around the Pyeongtaek Port area and come home via Pyeongtaek Lake. It gave me a chance to really put the new bib shorts to the test, and also to knock out the May 100k.
As usual, I enjoyed it thoroughly. I can’t say enough how much cycling benefits me. I can hardly figure out why so few do it, but I guess everyone has their favorite ways to stay active (or inactive). I mean, I know people who actually like to run! Can you imagine that? Where’s the adventure in running?
Anyway. I count today another success. Checked all of the boxes, and then some.
