Its about 10 Miles or so, and most of the ride is relatively flat, until you get to Pullman (I live up on a hill). I don't have a bike, but Mike bought one a few years ago. So, we adjusted it for me, bought some road tires (it had some seriously knobby mountain bike tires on it) and about a month ago we finally had a nice day so I could try.
Unfortunately, about 3 miles in I stopped because I dropped my water bottle, and then heard this noise - pssshhhhht - the tire popped!
We finally have some nice days, so I tried again yesterday. I completed the WHOLE RIDE! For this out of shape person, it was a huge accomplishment!
Well, it took me longer than 49 minutes, but I made it!
Can't ride again today - I have a dentist appointment, but I plan on starting out by riding home three days a week, and then moving up from there. It was so much fun, just being out on a bike, smelling the flowers, and seeing the creek up close. Now... If my behind wasn't so sore!!
