I’ve been quite busy over the past couple of weeks — if you’ve read my past two pieces, you know why. If you read the one before that, you’ll see that it took me a week to write something new…and even that was a random collection of thoughts.
This all also meant no riding, and that had to be rectified. On a whim, I set the alarm for four, but didn’t feel too serious about it when the thing woke me up. I mean, there was quite a stretch that the alarm never had to wake me up. I was usually awake in the late-three o’clock hour. But today, it took me a full twelve minutes to talk myself into it.
Got up. Got dressed. Got my coffee. Hit the road at 0435, home by 0550. Worth it. An absolutely beautiful morning…
