Talking Sometimes Life is Great!

Everyone:

Some days are nicer than others. Today (Thursday 9 Nov) Linda was working on the computer so I got to do my 25 mile ride on my single bike (happens once a month when Linda has Board Meeting minutes to transcribe). As I was going along the route another single rider came up along side and we had a conversation. After a bit he said "I have to let you go up the road, I can't hold your pace." The best part is that this guy was easily 20 years my junior and looked pretty fit!

He drifted back farther and farther until he was out of sight.
