Good Sam Ride

Longish (for me) 32 mile Thursday bike ride. Such a delightful trail. I was glad to be the Good Samaritan on this ride, and offer up my biking multitool to a guy whose handlebars were loose and rotating down, and really messing with his riding. I was doing pretty well, until I turned around, and I suddenly felt really tired. I need to remember to take food, if I think I might be gone awhile. All I had was 8oz of Gatorade and 30oz of water, and I was definitely having troubles with my pace, on the second half of the ride, heading back home. I was dragging... the good news, is that I made it home intact. Honestly, the trail is so nicely hidden from the neighborhoods it passes through, that without thinking about it, I probably passed several places that I could’ve bought something great to eat. That’s all on me.
