Sunday was an epic day. We got up at 7:30 to prep for an 8:30 road ride. Everyone met up at our place .... Colin, Christine, Gabor (yes! Gabor!) and Kenyon all came over and we sipped some coffee and contemplated the torture that lay ahead.
And oh, the torture.
I didn't realize that the ramifications of the Blubber Burn would continue on long afterward.... apparently when guys finish last = obsession with getting fit.
We rolled out and headed up Lockside, where Cam promptly got a flat... but that was quickly taken care of and we continued en route into the depths of the Highlands, renowned for its killer hills. But I love the Highlands -- there's nothing like cycling through a cathedral of trees.
You can see our route here...
Three hours later, we made it home with growling stomachs. The rest of my day was spent relaxing... Cam, on the other hand, drove out to Sooke to hit up some mountain bike trails. That boy is CRAZY!
But nothing beats a good ride with good people -- we hadn't done a ride with Gabor and Kenyon in at least a year!
In other news...
The Barcelo Costa Resort in Cancun patiently awaits me and my sister. SIX DAYS and counting...
Hmm... it's a good thing we didn't go with our other consideration: Egypt.
:D
