This is day two this week of no biking with Ellie. I caught some sort of virus over the weekend and still have a lot of congestion in my chest. It isn’t like the commute is very long, but I didn’t want to be coughing while trying to pedal. We also were running a bit late today or else I probably would have tried the bike today. Ellie was adorable both mornings because she kept yelling “bike, bike” from the backseat of the car. I responded, “I know, we aren’t on the bike. We’ll take it tomorrow.” Monday I lied…
I have to say that I missed the ride yesterday and today. It is a nice way to de-stress after a day at work. The only stressful part to our ride is still crossing Slaughter. I find that my mind is clearer when I can feel the wind on my face. Ellie and I even said a little prayer last Thursday for the kids waiting for the bus. I take notice more of the things around me while on the bike, and I try to remember to thank God for His many blessings. I hope to be back on the bike tomorrow. Thursday it looks like we may get rain, but its Austin so we probably won’t see a drop. Thank you for tuning into Bicycling Incidents with Kim and Ellie. It is fun for me to share my adventures with you.
