Yeah!
I have waited so long to be that girl!! Years of living 21 miles and 3 highways away from my place of employment have made the "biker girl" dream an unrealistic and completely unattainable goal for me. Oh, and then throw in living in MN in the WINTER, and you've got a recipe for car-dwelling. Now, some girls are even more adventurous *cough* crazy than me and would have plotted out a path AROUND the city from their home in the upper 'burbs. Um, yeah. The bike girl dream just wasn't THAT important to me. Plus, I don't have an extra 3 hours in the morning to add to my commute. A girl's gotta have time for a latte!
Ok, back to today. Here's the proof that I arrived on my Trek, and not in my Mazda. Ta' da'!! Bike in the office!!
And, I have the helmet hair to prove it! Don't worry I brought a hat. Which I stashed in this handy backpack that Rusty dug out for me this morning. Seriously, when do adults ever wear backpacks???
So yes, I was that girl on the road, with the rolled up pant leg, the bike helmet and the over-sized backpack strapped to me...yes, STRAPPED! But I made it here with only slightly jelly-ified legs and my lunch and cranium in tact!
I am a little more concerned about the ride home...it's basically ALL uphill...and it's supposed to rain.
Wish me luck!
