First week under my belt

I've had my bike a week and have been out 6 times for a total of 42.43 miles and according to the mapmyride website I've burned 1,428 calories ! Not bad for an out of shape old lady !

The shorts and gloves I bought definitely help. My hands and tush don't hurt as much. I saw some other cyclists out today which was nice - I said hello and they answered, It makes me wonder what they're thinking when they see me. Oh well - I'm doing this for me and not the rest of the world and as long as I keep it up something good will come out of it. I'm not looking forward to when it starts raining again - I'll have to find something else to do unless I can get out when it 's not raining and not dark. I have the whole summer before that happens so - I'll cross that bridge when I get to it. Off to take a shower and relax a little.
