In The Parade

Sunday I hooked up with SS Amy, Lori & Bill and we headed out to round Long Lake for a nice Sunday ride. I think Lori was the only "fresh" one, as SS Amy decided to go running Saturday (what were you thinking?!?), Bill had ridden like a 12 hour marathon with the big boys, and I had battled gale force winds to the pathetic average of around 14mph.

The ride was great despite the aches & pains we started with. And the best part was riding in the St Patrick's day Parade in Dundee. Sweet. We timed our ride perfectly to be coming through there as the St Pat's parade was getting under way. We were somewhat amused by the single guy carrying a 12 pack for himself, and we decided coming back through Dundee after the parade probably wouldn't be the smartest thing for our safety. Three hot chicks in spandex with the "token male". . . .we might not make it back home in one piece. Just the 2 minute stop at the gas station had some "Local" trying to make friends with SS Amy. Although he was pretty hot. . . . . .

The day held lots of laughter though. . . . .especially watching Lori put air in her tires. If you've never had the pleasure of watching that, I highly recommend it. It's a comic routine all in itself. :-)
