Confidence Booster

We haven't had very many nice days lately here in NM. It has been so windy day after day with cold and some rain. Today however, was one of the nicest days we've had. Temps in the high 60's and little to no wind at all. The cherry on the sundae is that we had a 4-day weekend from school so I was actually able to take advantage and get in a bike ride. I rode solo from the house, South on highway 1. It is a 2 lane road with little traffic especially the farther you get out. About an hour South you ride through a wildlife refuge known particularly for the birds that reside there. It is not uncommon to see deer and coyotes. I rode for 2 hours then turned around and was able to finish in 4 hours. I did start dying on the way back but I stopped at a gas station and refueled and felt so much better. Total milage was 65.
