This morning my delightful wife, Trena, my friend, Chuck, and I decided to go on an early Sunday morning bike ride. I confess that I knew it was going to be a long ride, but the other two never saw it coming—even though I thought I made myself abundantly clear.
Here’s how it went down: Saturday night, I sent our friend, Chuck, a message asking if he wanted to take an early morning ride before it got too hot outside; he said, “Yes.” Now Chuck thought we were just going to take a short ride (20-25 miles)….Boy, was he surprised! Thankfully, he jumped at the opportunity to ride more miles in one day than he had ever ridden. (His personal single-day record was 50 miles.) My adorable wife thought Chuck wouldn’t ride the whole MoPac Trail, so the ride would be a decent length (30-40 miles), but not too long….Boy, was she wrong! 75 miles later, we finally arrived home.
Yes, we all had a wonderful time. (But don’t tell my cute, little wife—she might not believe you.)
Ha! You tricked them! I have to put together some longer days on weekend to prep for heatstroke 100. I told people how you were doing all these miles on a MTB and yes, they think you are nuts. Lol
