Bike Ride at the lake

Cannot stay away from the water. All those times I was paddling by the bike trail I would watch the bikers looking over and think, bet they wish they were me!

Saturday, I was one of them. I told my biking buds that I was planning my first real ride on the lake Natoma trail. They said, we'll meet you there and ride with you. I said,
"but I will be slow"
"no worries"
"but I may walk up some hills"
"we'll walk with you"
What great buds !

9 miles! I mapped it. They went on to do their 20 mile loop, but I made it from Negro Bar to Hazel and back. A very pregnant lady jogging with a baby carriage passed me on the hill, on the way back I took so many breaks that I passed the same jogger 4 times!

But I had fun. And you know what? When I was biking the trail looking over at the water and all the SUP racers, I kinda wished I was on the water!

But variety is the spice of life, so pedaling and paddling on!
