Bike Riding

I have always loved riding my bike. Ever since I was a little girl I could ride around all day. I was the kid in middle school who rode her bike to and from school when the cool thing to do was ride the bus, and yes I was even that girl who rode her bike in high school! Something about the whole experience just makes me happy and full of life. Not only is it exercise, but to feel the wind in your hair and enjoy the sights around, aw.... just pure bliss! Now don't get me wrong, I am definitely no Lance Armstrong or triathlete, but I do love a good bike ride. So, that's exactly what I did....I put a brand new seat on the bike, strapped on my helmet, and rode. I live somewhat near white rock lake, so I headed in that direction. I biked the lake and returned home. Of course I was worn out, but oh boy I had a great time. I was totally alone, the weather was AWESOME, and I got to listen to some of my favorite tunes on my Ipod! What heaven! I wish I could do it more often. I would definitely live in a place where riding my bike was my only way of transportation or a more visible option. I truly do think that riding my bike not only brings out my inner-child screaming to escape, but it totally add to my "cool factor." :-)
