The Love of my Life


Meet "Ruby"

She is the new love of my life. I look forward to Saturdays, days off, or skipping out of work before the sun goes down, just so I can go for a ride. She's fast, sleek, responsive and forgiving -- all at the same time. It's about as smoothe as riding a Nilla Wafer. Aw, yeah, baby! I can burn a good 1500 calories in a relatively short ride, AND I'm having fun enjoying the scenery.

Tomorrow, I'm joining up with the Sacramento Bike Hikers. Besides all the great excercize with no impact to my knee, there's the added bonus of all the CUTE guys. On the path and in the shop, man, they are EVERYWHERE! One time a month, I get to have cute guys at the shop teach me more detailed bike maintenance. I discovered that if you get a flat, you can't even stop to begin fixing it, without about a dozen guys pull over to offer help.

Question: Why'd I let this go untouched for so long? Silly me.

I love it! Chilvary at its best. May your tires go flat often.
