I said I wouldn't, but I did.

I know that I vowed that I would never ride with Gary on his new road bike, but this week I gave in to temptation and arranged for a Saturday morning babysitter so that we could ride together.  The weather was perfect - low 70s, very little wind - and we got in a nice 45 mile ride.

This was my view for a good portion of the ride.  I was quite proud of myself for taking this picture while riding and not crashing in the process.

I was also quite proud of myself for not holding him back too much.  We kept up a good pace - one of my fastest ever.

Maybe it's a good thing to be pushed out of your comfort zone once in a while.  :)
