Saintly Ride

Up with the sun and out with the light of day. Two wheels on the concrete; moving forward. Pedal power my friends. I took my alloted 45 minutes of exercise on the road this morning and for the most part it was uneventful. It was really too early for riders although there were a few going out as I waas coming back in. I also noticed numerous folks had slapped their bikes on their car or truck - likely going to meet up with a peloton somewhere. Three people does not a peloton make, hence no pelotons this morn.

Cool temps (59) for a ride, thusly double layering was necessary. I still seemed a little under-dressed compared to the few others riding the roads. But I was mostly comfortable. Perhaps it was St. Arnold watching over me as I cruised FM 528 in my spankin' new St. Arnold cycling jersey.

I'll probably start taking the Garmin with me starting next week. Since the cycling is really all I can do, I may as well embrace it. I might even upgrade to the heart monitor version. I know - wacky.

I want donuts. And I am so trying to justify it. But after yesterday when I saw a runner along the road and got depressed, immediately hitting up the Whataburger... Perhaps I'll channel Topher and make it so.

So THAT'S where I heard of Whataburger! Honest to goodness, last week when I was in Dallas I noticed a Whataburger, never having seen one before, but I knew some blogger somewhere talks about them often but I couldn't remember what I had heard from whom. So I didn't stop. I couldn't remember if it was a good thing or a bad thing, so I didn't want to chance it. Next time I'm in Dallas, I'll be sure to stop and check it out.

Go ahead. Eat a donut.
