Recovery Ride?
After four hours sleep Wednesday evening, Bevin and I drove the rental to Denver very early Thursday morning to catch a 9 am flight. We arrived in Buffalo, NY without difficulty; Bevin’s car waiting for the drive home. In Burlington for less than 24 hrs, I did three loads of laundry, caught up with my housemates, ate, slept, collected a rental car and was back on the road for Prince Edward County and the Bloomfield Bicycle Co.(BBC)
Arriving shortly after 6 pm, I was greeted by the ever-charming Alison with the sweetest of words passing her lips; “wanna go for a ride?” Within 15 mins, I was changed, Sophie’s tires were pumped and Alison, Rick and I were out for a 90 min rip ’round the County…in the dark. Yes, we all had lights, front and rear.
Sunday was the traditional BBC [Canadian]Thanksgiving Century Ride with options for an imperial (100 miles) or a metric(100 kilometres) distance. At 10 am, we were but six who ventured out; three for the imperial, three for the metric.
My legs hurt. They were tight. My left hamstring was not happy. Climbing, even the smallest of hills felt tiring. Wearing several layers to combat the cold morning weather I was, at least, still warm. Nearing the 60 km mark, I knew I would truly suffer in a most unpleasant fashion if I attempted the full 160’ish kms planned for today. I also wanted to go mountain-biking on Sunday and knew it would not happen if I did the big distance. It would seem the mountains had taken their toll.
Rolling up to Peter and Adam, my fellow Imperialists, I announced I would only be riding the 100 km route. Within minutes, the decision was unanimous; we would all ride the metric. Some were sore from the week’s riding, others had time constraints because of the holiday. Some of us simply did not want to ride 100 miles. As it turned out, we were all happy with the decision and enjoyed the ride as it was and for what it was. And what it was, was just what it needed to be.
